Answer:

E

Explanation:

The given expression is

5(2x-7)

In order to check the options we will have to simplify the expression so that we can match with the answers.

To simplify the expression , first we have to multiply the 5 written outside the bracket with the terms inside the bracket i.e. 2x -7

So,

=> 5(2x-7)

Multiplying 5 inside

=> (5)(2)x - (5)(7)

=> 10x - 35

So, comparing with the given options, we observe that option E is the correct answer..
