Given -10(-10x2-2x)

Question

select what the next step should look like

a
100x2-20x

b
100x2+20x

c
100x2+20

Answer 1

To simplify the expression \(-10(-10x^2 - 2x)\), you can distribute \(-10\) across the terms inside the parentheses.

The step would look like this:

\(-10 \cdot -10x^2 + -10 \cdot -2x\)

This results in:

\(100x^2 + 20x\)

So the correct option that matches this result is:

b) 100x^2 + 20x
