I go with b cause i got b when I calculated
OpenStudy (griffindore):
ya but it can be both
OpenStudy (janu16):
–3.5(2 – 3n) – 2.5n
Need to expand the multiplication:
a (b +c) = ab + ac
So we get:
-7 - 10.5n - 2.5n
then collect like items:
-7 -13n
We typically write this as -13n -7, with letters first
Anyway, it's answer C
OpenStudy (janu16):
Go with c
OpenStudy (griffindore):
thanks ill put both and wont no if im right till later
