Question

Rewrite the expression (5n - 5² - 5/5²) as:

A) (5n - 24)
B) (5n - 20/25)
C) (5n - 20/5)
D) (5n - 20/25)

Answer 1

To rewrite the expression (5n - 5² - 5/5²), first simplify each term and then combine them to get the final answer of (5n - 26/5).

Step-by-step explanation:

To rewrite the expression (5n - 5² - 5/5²), we need to simplify each term one by one. First, 5² is equal to 25. Then, 5/5² is equal to 5/25, which can be simplified to 1/5. Finally, we combine all the terms to get (5n - 25 - 1/5). We can further simplify this expression by subtracting 25 and simplifying 1/5 to get the final answer of (5n - 26/5).
