Answer 1

B: Sabrina's Work

Just did it on Edgenuity 2020 (:

Explanation:

Equation: 5 + c + c + c - 4 = ?

c + c + c = 3c

5 - 4 = 1

3c + 1 is the answer, which is B (Second Option) or Sabrina's Work!

Answer 2

-5cd

Explanation:

Simplifying:

• -3cd - d(2c - 4) - 4d = ⇒ parenthesis
• -3cd - 2cd + 4d - 4d = ⇒ simplify like terms
• -5cd ⇒ answer

The first choice is correct one.
