Question

A) –2n + 9m – 17p

B) –2n – 9mn + 17np

C) –2n + 9mn – 17np

D) –18n + 81mn – 153np

Answer 1

-2n + 9mn - 17np

All you do is simplify the equation by distributing and multiplying the 1/3n to each of the numbers.

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

The correct answer is:   [C]:  " −2n  + 9mn − 17np" .
_____________________________________________________

$\frac{1}{3}$ n (−6 + 27m − 51p) =

 ( $\frac{1}{3}$ n  *  −6 )  + ( $\frac{1}{3}$ n  * 27m )  −
 ( $\frac{1}{3}$ n * 51p )  ;


=  −2n  + 9mn − 17np ;  which is:  Answer choice:  [C]:  " −2n  + 9mn − 17np" .
