Respuesta :

Answer: Second option.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is important to remember the Distributive Property in order to solve this exercise.

The Distributive property states that:

[tex]a(b+c)=ab+ac\\\\\\a(b-c)=ab-ac[/tex]

In this case you have the following expression provided in the exercise:

[tex]t(14-5)[/tex]

Then, in order to write this expression in another way, you can apply the Distributive property. Multiply each number inside the parentheses by "t".

Applying this procedure, you get:

[tex]t(14-5)=(t14)-(t5)[/tex]

Notice that this expression matches with the one shown in the the second option.
