Respuesta :
(3-8y)*(-2.5) = (3)*(-2.5)+(-8y)*(-2.5)
(3-8y)*(-2.5) = -7.5+20y
(3-8y)*(-2.5) = -7.5+20y
Distributive Property:
The distributive property lets you multiply a sum by multiplying each addend separately and then add the products.
In numerical form we have:
[tex] a(b+c) =a*b +a*c [/tex]
Now let us use this property for our question:
(-2.5)(3-8y)
Here we have ,
a=(-2.5) , b=3 and c=-8y
So using distributive property here,
[tex] (-2.5)(3-8y) =(-2.5)*(3) +(-2.5)*(-8y) [/tex]
=-7.5 +20y
So answer is -7.5 +20y
