Step-by-step explanation:

It says "eliminate redundant parentheses"

Then "subtract the numbers"

And then the solution should be what I put as the answer

Answer:

5(7r - 2) - 12 = 35r - 22

Step-by-step explanation:

First you want to do the mailman (it's what I called it in school) so take 5*7r which is 35r and do 5*(-)2 which is -10. So far the equation looks like this:

35r - 10 - 12

So now you subtract -10 from -12 and since they are both negative numbers it will be -22. So it's 35r - 22

5(7r - 2) - 12

35r - 10 - 12

35r - 22

I hope this helped!!
