Question

PLEASE HELP!!!! THIS MAKES ABSOLUTELY NO SENSE TO ME.

Which expressions are equivalent to 5(1/3x+7)-3(1/2x - 4) ? Check all that apply.



5 1/3x-3 1/2x +35-12


1/6x +47


1 2/3x +35- 1 1/2x+12


5(1/3)+(5)(7)-(3)(1/2x)+(3)(4)


1 1/3x+35-1 1/2x- 12

Answer 1

The answer is B and C

5(1/3x+7)-3(1/2x-4) doing the distributive property  = 5/3x+35-3/2x+12 converts to 1 2/3x +35-1 1/2x+12 and simplified to 1/6x +47

Hope that helps
