Simplify
\mathrm{5.2(p-2)+3p-7}.


\diamond\large\textsf{\textbf{\underline{\underline{Answer and How to solve:-}}}}\diamond

First multiply 5.2 by the parentheses:-


\diamond
\mathrm{5.2p-10.4+3p-7}

❖ Now, combine like terms (p's and numbers):-


\triangle
\mathrm{5.2p-3p-10.4-7}

❖ On simplification,


\triangle\diamond\mathrm{2.2p-17.4}

❖ So we conclude that the answer is:-


\dashrightarrow\star\bigstar\triangle\diamond\square\boxed{\boxed{\bold{2.2p-17.4}}}}\square\diamond\triangle\bigstar\star\dashleftarrow

▣ Good luck!
