Answer 7

Answer 8

I made a boo boo on my last post. It was meant as the following
5(30 − 2)
5(30) = 150
5(-2) = -10
150 -10 = 140

Answer 9

so thats my answer

Answer 10

No, you are looking for an expression that equals 160 because 5 time 32 = 160
5(30 − 2) = 140 so this one is not it
Try the other ones out and see which one equals 160.

Answer 11

You try and tell me what you get and I will tell you if your are right or wrong

Answer 12

You know 5(30 − 2) is not it. I did that one for you

Answer 13

alright :)

Answer 14

Why you are so confused? You just need the answer which gives 32 inside brackets.. which is B..:P

Answer 15

the answer is 5(30 + 2)
bc it equals 160! :)
