To expand the expression \( 25(-5c + 10) \), you distribute 25 to each term inside the parentheses:
-
Distribute \( 25 \) to \( -5c \): \[ 25 \times -5c = -125c \]
-
Distribute \( 25 \) to \( 10 \): \[ 25 \times 10 = 250 \]
Now, combine both results: \[ 25(-5c + 10) = -125c + 250 \]
Therefore, the expanded expression is: \[ -125c + 250 \]
None of the provided answer choices match this result, so please check the options again. The correct expanded expression is \(-125c + 250\).
