Question

Use the distributive property to remove the parentheses. -6(11 - 2)​

Answer 1

Explanation:

To remove the parenthesis multiply the number outside of the parenthesis (in this case -6) to the numbers inside of the parenthesis (11, and -2).

`-6*11=-66`

A negative multiplied by a positive is a negative.

`-6*-2=12`

A negative multiplied by a negative is a positive.

`-66+12=-54`
