Hope it helps.

Answer 2

TO determine which expressions that are equal to 2.5, we evaluate these expressions. We do as follows:

5 ÷ 2 = 2.5

-2(-1.25) = 2.5

(-0.5)2 = -1

-1 + (-1.5) = -2.5

Therefore, only the first and second choices that are the answer. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.
