Sagot :

Answer:

D. 40x - 8

C. (5x-1)(-2+7+3)

----------------------------------------------

-2(5x - 1) + 7(5x - 1) - 3(-5x + 1)

= -10x + 2 + 35x - 7 +15x - 3

= -10x - 35x +15x + 2 - 7 - 3

= 40x - 8

D. is correct.

----------------------------------------------

(5x-1)(-2 + 7 + 3)

= -10x + 2 + 35x - 7 +15x - 3

= 10x - 35x +15x + 2 - 7 - 3

= 40x -8

which is as same as the answer choice D. and the answer you get from solving the -2(5x - 1) + 7(5x - 1) - 3(-5x + 1), so

C. is correct, too

-------------------------------------------------

There seems to be a typo in answer choice A.  so I cannot determine if A is also correct or not...
