OpenStudy (anonymous):

the first part yass, but 15 times x is 15x. so you have 15 times 12 -15x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-3 or 3?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

or C I mean

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no its B

OpenStudy (anonymous):

because its 15*12-15x, and the answer B shows that, you cant subtract it because 15 and 12 dont have an x
