Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

Apply the distributive property to 5(2x - 3y):

Multiply 5 by each term inside the parentheses.

5(2x - 3y) = 10x - 15y

The other expression is 10x - 10y.

The terms 10x in both expressions are equal.

Since the term -15y is not equal to the term -10y, the expressions are not equivalent.
