Expand
-5(2q+8)
To expand -5(2q+8), we distribute the -5 to each term inside the parentheses:
-5(2q+8) = -5 * 2q + (-5) * 8
Now we can simplify each term:
-10q + (-40)
Combining like terms:
-10q - 40
So, -5(2q+8) expands to -10q - 40.
expand 7/10(5d+6)
To expand 7/10(5d+6), we distribute the 7/10 to each term inside the parentheses:
7/10(5d+6) = (7/10) * 5d + (7/10) * 6
Now we can simplify each term:
(7/10) * 5d = 35d/10 = (7/2)d
(7/10) * 6 = 42/10 = 21/5
Putting it all together:
(7/10)(5d+6) = (7/2)d + 21/5
So, 7/10(5d+6) expands to (7/2)d + 21/5.
expand -5/8(3p+8)
To expand -5/8(3p+8), we distribute the -5/8 to each term inside the parentheses:
-5/8(3p+8) = (-5/8) * 3p + (-5/8) * 8
Now we can simplify each term:
(-5/8) * 3p = -15p/8
(-5/8) * 8 = -40/8 = -5
Putting it all together:
-5/8(3p+8) = -15p/8 - 5
So, -5/8(3p+8) expands to -15p/8 - 5.
To expand -5(2q + 8), you need to distribute the -5 to every term inside the parentheses.
First, distribute -5 to 2q:
-5 * 2q = -10q
Next, distribute -5 to 8:
-5 * 8 = -40
Therefore, when you expand -5(2q + 8), you get:
-10q - 40
To expand the expression -5(2q+8), you need to distribute the -5 to both terms inside the parenthesis.
Step 1: Distribute the -5 to the first term, which is 2q.
-5 * 2q = -10q
Step 2: Distribute the -5 to the second term, which is 8.
-5 * 8 = -40
Therefore, the expanded form of -5(2q+8) is -10q - 40.
