Answer 1

The expression
`5(3r-10)` means the product of 5 and the difference of three times r minus 10. If r= 4, the value of the expression is
`10` .

Explanation:

The product of 5 and the difference of three times r minus 10 would look like this:

`5(3r-10)`

If you substitute 4 for
`r`, you get

`5[3(4)-10]`

Multiply 3 and 4

`5(12-10)\\`

Subtract

`5(2)\\`

Multiply

`10`
