Select all e x p r e a s i o n s that are equivalent to 7x + 2(2x - 5) - (-5x + 3)
A. 16x - 13
B.11x - 5 -3 - 5x
C. 6x - 13
D. 11x - 10 + 3 - 5x
E. 11x - 10 + 5x - 3
Choose two answers
A. 16x - 13
D. 11x - 10 + 3 - 5x
U sure
I apologize for the mistake in my previous response. Let's simplify the expression step by step:
7x + 2(2x - 5) - (-5x + 3)
= 7x + 4x - 10 + 5x - 3 (distributing the 2 into 2x and -5)
= 16x - 13
So, the correct equivalent expressions are:
A. 16x - 13
C. 6x - 13
U sure..
Apologies for the confusion earlier. Let's re-evaluate the expression:
7x + 2(2x - 5) - (-5x + 3)
= 7x + 4x - 10 + 5x - 3
= 16x - 13
Therefore, the correct equivalent expression to 7x + 2(2x - 5) - (-5x + 3) is:
A. 16x - 13
I appreciate your patience. Thank you for pointing out the mistake.
