Select the expression equivalent to (13215)(-9x+16).

1 answer

To find the expression equivalent to \((13215)(-9x + 16)\), we will distribute \(13215\) to each term inside the parentheses:

\[ 13215(-9x) + 13215(16) \]

Now, we calculate each term:

  1. For the first term: \[ 13215 \cdot -9x = -118935x \]

  2. For the second term: \[ 13215 \cdot 16 = 211440 \]

Combining both results gives us:

\[ -118935x + 211440 \]

Thus, the expression equivalent to \((13215)(-9x + 16)\) is:

\[ -118935x + 211440 \]
