Hey there!

ANSWER:
(8)/(5)x-2

Step-by-step explanation:


(2)/(5)(4x-5)

Let's add parenthesis to 2/5. We can leave (4x-5) since it already has parenthesis. We also have to add a addition sign with 4x-5.


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

Now let's separate everything.


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

This equals to:


(8)/(5)x-2\text{(ANSWER)}

Hope this helps!
