2c−10
2c minus 10

−2c+10
negative 2c plus 10

2c−4

Answer 1

To expand \( \frac{2}{5}(-5c + 10) \), we distribute \( \frac{2}{5} \) across the terms inside the parentheses:

\[
\frac{2}{5}(-5c) + \frac{2}{5}(10)
\]

Calculating each term:

1. \( \frac{2}{5} \times -5c = -2c \)
2. \( \frac{2}{5} \times 10 = 4 \)

Putting it all together, we have:

\[
-2c + 4
\]

So the correct response is:

**−2c + 4** (negative 2c plus 4)
