is 2(4x-10) equivalent to 4(2x-5)​=yes

2(4x-10)=8x-20 4(2x-5)=8x-20

Answer 2

Hey there!

PROBLEM #1

~~~~~~~~~~~~

-2(-4x + 10)

= -2(-4x) - 2(10)
= 8x - 20

————————-

4(2x - 5)

= 4(2x) + 4(-5)

= 8x - 20

_____________
8x - 20 = 8x - 20

Thus, they are very much equivalent to each other so this make your statement:

[TRUE]

Good luck on your assignment & enjoy your day!
