Question

Simplify 5(2a – 4b + 5)

10a – 4b + 5

10a – 20b + 25

7a – 4b + 5

7a – 9b + 10

Answer 1

5(2a - 4b + 5)

Distribute 5 inside the parentheses (5 * 2a) - (5 * 4b) + (5 * 5).

10a - 20b + 25

`\boxed {B)~10a - 20b + 25}`

Answer 2

Hey there!

In order to solve this problem (or equation) you have to
`distribute`

`5(2a - 4b + 5) \\ 5(2a) + (-4b) +5 \\ 5(2a) +5(-4b) + 5(5) \\ 5(2a) = 10a \\ 5(-4b) = -20b \\ 5(5) = 25 \\ \\ \\ Answer: 10a - 20b +25 (OptionB.)`

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!
