Answer:

1. -5

2. 0

Explanation:

1. Distribute the Negative Sign:

=a−2a+−1(3a−(4a−5))

=a+−2a+−1(3a)+−1(−4a)+(−1)(5)

=a+−2a+−3a+4a+−5

Combine Like Terms:

=a+−2a+−3a+4a+−5

=(a+−2a+−3a+4a)+(−5)

Answer:

=−5

2. Distribute:

=(13)(5)+(13)(−t)+−5+t+(−12)(5)+(−12)(−t)

=65+−13t+−5+t+−60+12t

Combine Like Terms:

=65+−13t+−5+t+−60+12t

=(−13t+t+12t)+(65+−5+−60)

Answer:

=0
