Question

Use distributive property to find the product of$-2(3x-5)$  .

Step-by-Step Solution

Answer

The product of $-2(3x-5)$  is  $-6x+10$ with the help of distributive property.

Step 1. Write down the given expression.

The given expression to evaluate for product using the distributive property is$-2(3x-5)$  .

Step 2. Evaluate product using the distributive property.

Evaluate product of $-2(3x-5)$  gives,

$\begin{array}{c}-2(3x-5)=(-2)\left(3x\right)-(-2)\left(5\right)\mathrm{....}\left(\begin{array}{l}\text{Distributive property}\\ a(b-c)=ab-ac\end{array}\right)\\ =-6x+10\end{array}$

Step 3. Conclusion.

The product of $-2(3x-5)$  is $-6x+10$  with the help of distributive property.
