We are given the following expression


2w-5(-2z+2w)-5z

Let us simplify the above expression

Step 1:

Expand the parenthesis


\begin{gathered} 2w-5(-2z+2w)-5z \\ 2w+10z-10w-5z \end{gathered}

Step 2:

Combine the like terms


\begin{gathered} 2w+10z-10w-5z \\ 2w-10w+10z-5z \\ -8w+5z \end{gathered}

Therefore, the simplified expression is


-8w+5z
