Answer:

2x - 5y

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

We can distribute the value outside the parenthesis to the terms inside to simplify the expression.

Simplify:

  • [tex]-\frac13(-6x + 15y)[/tex]
  • [tex]-\frac13(-6x) -\frac13(15y)[/tex]
  • [tex]\frac{-6x}{-3} - \frac{15y}{3}[/tex]
  • [tex]2x - 5y[/tex]

The simplified expression is 2x - 5y.
