How could you use the distributive property to rewrite −18 + (−27)?
a) −9(−2 − 3)
b) −9(2 + 3)
c) −9(−45)
d) 9(2 + 3)

B) -9(2 + 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

As the answer choices are showing the backward process of distribution process, just divide common factors and bring them outside.

In this case, the factors of the following numbers are:

18: 1 , 2 , 3 , 6 , 9 , 18

27: 1 , 3 , 9 , 27

The largest common factor is 9. Divide -9 from both sides (since both of them share a negative sign, also factor out the negative sign):

(-18 - 27)/-9 = 2 + 3

B) -9(2 + 3) is your answer.

i think it is c hope that

the answer is option a you would get more money.it would be $250.

step-by-step explanation:

for option b 200/2=100=50% 100/2=50=25% 50/5=10=5% it would be $220
