Simplify 1/3(9x − 5)13(9x − 5) (1 point)
6x-5
3x-5
3x-5/3
6x-2
To simplify this expression, we can distribute 1/3 to each term inside the parentheses.
(1/3)(9x - 5)
= (1/3)(9x) - (1/3)(5)
= 3x - 5/3
Therefore, the simplified expression is 3x - 5/3.
To simplify the expression 1/3(9x - 5)^(13)(9x - 5), we can start by simplifying the expression inside the parentheses.
Let's simplify 9x - 5.
Now, we can rewrite the expression 1/3(9x - 5)^(13) as (1/3)(9x - 5)^(13).
To simplify the expression (1/3)(9x - 5)^(13), we can multiply the coefficient 1/3 by each term inside the parentheses:
(1/3)(9x) - (1/3)(5) = 3x - 5/3.
Therefore, the simplified form of 1/3(9x - 5)^(13)(9x - 5) is 3x - 5/3.
To simplify the expression 1/3(9x - 5)13(9x - 5), we can follow the order of operations (PEMDAS: Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division, Addition and Subtraction).
First, let's simplify the expression inside the parentheses (9x - 5):
9x - 5
Next, let's multiply this expression by 1/3:
(9x - 5) * 1/3
To multiply, we distribute the 1/3 to each term inside the parentheses:
(9x * 1/3) - (5 * 1/3)
Simplifying further:
(9x/3) - (5/3)
This simplifies to:
3x - 5/3
Therefore, the simplified expression is 3x - 5/3. So the answer is option C: 3x - 5/3.
