Question

Expand −5/6(9b−12) .

Answer 1

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To expand "-5/6(9b-12)", we will apply the distributive property and simplify each term:

First, distribute -5/6 to both terms inside the parentheses:
-5/6 * 9b = (-5/6)*(9b) = -45b/6 = -15b/2
-5/6 * -12 = (-5/6)*(-12) = 60/6 = 10

So the expanded form is:
-15b/2 + 10

To expand the expression −5/6(9b−12), we'll apply the distributive property.

First, distribute the -5/6 to both terms inside the parentheses:

= -5/6 * 9b - 5/6 * -12

Next, simplify each term:

= -45b/6 + 60/6

Now, we can add the two terms:

= (-45b + 60)/6

So the expanded form of −5/6(9b−12) is (-45b + 60)/6.

Answer 3

[AI-generated answer — Explain Bot]

To expand the expression −5/6(9b−12), we need to distribute the -5/6 to both terms inside the parentheses, which are 9b and -12.

First, distribute -5/6 to 9b:

-5/6 * 9b = -45b/6 = -15b/2

Next, distribute -5/6 to -12:

-5/6 * -12 = 60/6 = 10

Therefore, the expanded expression −5/6(9b−12) is equal to: -15b/2 + 10.
