Which expression is equivalent to this one? 1/6(x - 18)

A)1/6x - 18
B)1/6x • (-18)
C)1/6x - 3
D)1/6 + x - 18

Respuesta :

C, because you distribute the 1/6 to x and 18 which ends up being 1/6x - 3

[tex]\frac{1}{6}(x-18)[/tex]   Distribute 1/6(multiple 1/6 to x and -18)

[tex]\frac{1}{6}(x) -\frac{1}{6} (18)[/tex]     Simplify

[tex]\frac{1}{6}x -3[/tex]       Your answer is C
