Answer:

  (a)  2(3/4x+7)-3[1/2x+(-5)]

  (c)  2(3/4x)+2(7)+(-3)(1/2x)+(-3)(-5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Adding -5 is equivalent to subtracting 5, so ...

  (1/2x -5) = (1/2x +(-5)) . . . . transformation shown in 1st rewrite

__

When the number outside parentheses is negative, that negative value multiplies each term inside parentheses:

  -3(1/2x +(-5)) = (-3)(1/2x) +(-3)(-5) . . . . shown in 3rd rewrite

__

The expressions equivalent to the original are ...

  (a)  2(3/4x+7)-3[1/2x+(-5)]

  (c)  2(3/4x)+2(7)+(-3)(1/2x)+(-3)(-5)
