Answer :

Riia

The given expression is

[tex]-2(x-10)[/tex]

And we have to find the value of the expression when x =5

And for that, we plug 5 for x in the given expression. That is

[tex]-2(5-10)[/tex]

And difference of 5 and 10 is -5. So we will get

[tex]=-2*-5 =10[/tex]

So when x =5, the value of the expression is 10 .

Answer:

The value of the expression at x=5 is 10

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is [tex]-2(x-10)[/tex]

Let us simplify this expression.

Distribute -2 over the parentheses, we get

[tex]-2x+20[/tex]

Now, substitute x = 5, we get

[tex]-2(5)+20[/tex]

On simplifying, we get

[tex]-10+20\\=10[/tex]

The value of the expression at x=5 is 10
