HELP NEEDED NOW PLEASE Select all statements that are true. Be prepared to explain your reasoning.

1. 4-2(3+7)=4-2•3-2•7
2. 4-2(3+7)=4+-2•3+-2•7
3. 4-2(3+7)=4-2•3+2•7
4. 4-2(3+7)= 4-(2•3+2•7)

1, 2, and 4 are true statements.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The positive symbols will become negative once you removed the parenthese. For instance, 2-(3+2)=2-3-2. It’s the same in this problem. 4-2(3+7)=4-(2•3+2•7)=4-2•3-2•7

2. Distributive property. 4-2(3+7)=4+[-2(3+7)]=4+(-2•3+-2•7)

3 is false because the positive symbol is not changed into negative symbol after the parentheses were removed.

4. 4-2(3+7)=4-[2(3+7)]=4-(2•3+2•7)

13

step-by-step explanation:

169-1=168

168-3=165

165-5=160

160-7=153

153-9=144

144-11=133

133-13=120

120-15=105

105-17=88

88-19=69

69-21=48

48-23=25

25-25=0

since it took 13times to completely subtract it hence its square root is 13
