Use the Distributive Property to write 2(−5 + 3) as an equivalent expression. What is the value of the expression? MARKING BRAINLIST

I don't know what you mean, but I will try to answer.

2(-5+3)= -10+6

Value: -4

Step-by-step explanation:

2(-5+3)=

First, "distribute" the two by multiplying it to each of the two numbers in the parenthesis.

2(-5)= -10

2(3)= 6

After you finished multiplying, you will have this:

-10 + 6= (I am pretty sure this is equivalent to what you started with)

Now, you get the answer for the equation.  You would add -10 and 6 to get -4.

m∠cdf = 43° , m∠gdf = 114°, m∠gde = 23°, m∠edh = 23° , m∠cdh = 157°

step-by-step explanation:

since, it is given that de bisects the angle gdh ⇒ de divides the angle gdh into two equal angles.

⇒ m∠gde = m∠edh

⇒ 8·x   - 1 = 6·x + 5

⇒ x = 3

so, m∠gde = 8·x - 1 = 23°

and m∠edh = 23°

now, it is given ∠cde is an straight angle so, m∠cde = 180°

⇒ m∠cdf + m∠fdg + m∠gde = 180°

⇒ 43° + m∠fdg + 23° = 180°

⇒ m∠fdg = 114°

again, m∠cde = m∠cdh + m∠edh = 180°

m∠cdh + 23° = 180°

⇒ m∠cdh = 157°
