2−6(−5t+1)

Choose 1 answer:

(Choice A)
A
-30t-4

(Choice B)
B
30t+3

(Choice C)

(Choice D)

-5t-4

Answer 1

`\boxed{ \bold{ \huge{ \boxed{ \sf{30t - 4}}}}}`

Choice C is correct.

Explanation:

`\sf{2 - 6( - 5t + 1)}`

Distribute -6 through the parentheses

`\longrightarrow{ \sf{2 + 30t - 6}}`

The negative and positive integers are always subtracted but posses the sign of the bigger integer

`\longrightarrow{ \sf{30t - 4}}`
