Use number properties to simplify the following question -5 (5 + 3)

The answer is -5 x 8

Step-by-step explanation:

First of, we add the numbers in the parenthesis, 5+3, which equals 8.

Since we got rid of the parenthesis, a number next to a number means to multiply.

Since we are simplifying and not answering the equation, we leave the equations as -5 x 8

option a is correct.

step-by-step explanation:

scale factor: it is used to find proportional measurements.

proportions means having the same ratio.

scale factor is the ratio of the model measurement to the actual measurement in a simplest form.

or we can say that the ratio of any two corresponding lengths in two similar geometric figures

if the scale factor is more than 1, then it is an enlargement,

if the scale factor less than 1, then it is a reduction.

given the two geometric figure:

by definition of proportions, we have

35 is an outlier
