Which expression is equivalent to \(-5(x + 10)\)?

Asked by tavarezgiselle

Answer (3)

The final expression would be -5x -50.
You could've got this by multiplying -5 and x together, which is -5x. Multiply -5 and 10 together, and you get -50. This is also called the Distributive Property. Hope this helped :)

The expression − 5 ( x + 10 ) simplifies to − 5 x − 50 using the Distributive Property. First, multiply − 5 by each term inside the parentheses. This results in − 5 x and − 50 .
