Consider the expression 2 3 (14x − 3) − 3x( 4 5 + 5).

Which statements are true about simplifying this expression? Check all that apply.

Using the distributive property, the Two-thirds would be multiplied to 14x and to –3.
Combining Four-fifths + 5 can be done before multiplying it by 3x.
Using the distributive property, 3x times Four-fifths is subtracted, but the 3x times 5 is added.
Combining 14x – 3 can be done before multiplying by Two-thirds.
Subtracting 3x is the same as adding –3x.

a and c

step-by-step explanation:

answer: the proof is mentioned below.

step-by-step explanation:

since, given:   lines bc = ef

prove:   lines ac > ef

          statements                                           reason

1. bc=ef                                           1. given

2. ac= ab+bc                                 2. because b is the point between the  

                                                            line segment ac

3.   ac > bc                                       3. because if a line segment is equal to

                                                          the sum of two line segments then it is

                                                          always greater then each of these

                                                          individual line segments

4. ac > ef                                         4. by equality property.

sorry but i cant draw that
