Step-by-Step Solution

Answer

The product of$-3(-y+5)$   is  $3y-15$ 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 $-3(-y+5)$ .

Step 2. Evaluate product using the distributive property.

Evaluate product of $-3(-y+5)$  gives,

$\begin{array}{c}-3(-y+5)=(-3)(-y)+(-3)\left(5\right)\mathrm{....}\left(\begin{array}{l}\text{Distributive property}\\ a(b+c)=ab+ac\end{array}\right)\\ =3y-15\end{array}$

Step 3. Conclusion.

The product of $-3(-y+5)$  is $3y-15$  with the help of distributive property.
