Answer 1

A) (t · 14) - (t · 5)

Explanation:

To write the expression t ⋅ (14−5) in another way, we can distribute t to both terms inside the parentheses.

According to the distributive property, when a number is multiplied to a group of terms inside parentheses, we can distribute that number to each term individually and then add (or subtract, in this case) the results.

Therefore:

t · (14 - 5) = (t · 14) - (t · 5)
