Question

Need help with 2 more

Answer 1

Okay, do the parenthesis first.

Answer 2

-0.9

Answer 3

Correct, that gives us:

\(\sf -4.5[2x - 0.9]\)

Now distribute -4.5 into the parenthesis..do you know how?

Answer 4

No lol :D

Answer 5

I just made another mistake..lol.

It would actually give us:

\(\sf -4.5[2x - (-0.9)]\)

Or

\(\sf -4.5[2x + 0.9]\)

Answer 6

Okay, when we distribute, we take the number outside of the parenthesis and multiply it to everything inside the parenthesis.

Answer 7

So \(\sf -4.5[2x + 0.9]\) becomes \(\sf (-4.5 \cdot 2x) + (-4.5 \cdot 0.9)\)

Can you simplify that?

Answer 8

yes on second
