When 2((Three-fifths x + 2 and three-fourths y minus one-fourth x minus 1 and one-half y + 3)) is simplified, what is the resulting expression?

1 and StartFraction 7 over 10 EndFraction x + 2 and one-half y + 6
StartFraction 7 over 10 EndFraction x + 2 and one-half y + 6
StartFraction 7 over 10 EndFraction x + 8 and one-half y + 6
1 and StartFraction 7 over 10 EndFraction x + 4 and one-fourth y + 3

Answer: 7/10x +2 1/2y+6

Explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to solve the expression given:

2 ((3/5 x+ 2 3/4y -1/4 x- 1 1/2y+3))

Applying distributive property:

1 1/5 x + 5 1/2 y-1/2 x- 3y+6

Adding alike terms:

1 1/5x-1/2x + 5 1/2y -3y +6

7/10x + 2 1/2y+6

The resulting expression is

StartFraction 7 over 10 EndFraction x + 2 and one-half y + 6

• 7/10x +2 1/2y+6

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
