What’s Distribute -x(5x+2)

-5x^2-2x

Step-by-step explanation:

When distributing, you multiply the term outside the brackets to all the terms in brackets.

If the term outside the bracket is negative, then when distributing/opening the brackets, the signs of the terms changes.

-x*5x+-x*2

∴-5x^2-2x

step-by-step explanation:

we are given

so, we can move all x terms on one side

subtract both sides by 2x

add both sides by 9

divide both sides by 4

we get
