Expand 2/5(−5c+10).(1 point)

Answer 1

To expand the expression \( \frac{2}{5}(-5c + 10) \), you will distribute \( \frac{2}{5} \) to both terms inside the parentheses:

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

Now, calculate each term:

1. For the first term: \[ \frac{2}{5} \times -5c = -2c \]

2. For the second term: \[ \frac{2}{5} \times 10 = \frac{20}{5} = 4 \]

Putting it all together, we get:

\[ -2c + 4 \]

So, the expanded expression is:

\[ -2c + 4 \]
