Question

0,6*(x-14)-0,4*(5x-1)

Answer 1

0,6х-8,4-2х+0,4=(0,6-2)х+(-8,4+0,4)=-1,4х+(-8)=-1,4х-8

Answer 2

To simplify the expression, let's start by distributing the coefficients:

0.6 * (x - 14) - 0.4 * (5x - 1)

Step 1: Distribute the coefficients within the parentheses:

0.6 * x - 0.6 * 14 - 0.4 * 5x + 0.4 * 1

Step 2: Simplify the terms:

0.6x - 8.4 - 2x + 0.4

Step 3: Combine like terms:

(0.6x - 2x) - (8.4 - 0.4)

Step 4: Further simplify:

-1.4x - 8.0

So, the simplified expression is -1.4x - 8.0.
