Question

Use the distributive property
to remove the parentheses
(-3+3v+2v)(-9)

Answer 1

Using the distributive property, the (-9) may be distributed to each term in the other set of parentheses. This is distributed by multiplying since there is an implied multiplication when two sets of parentheses are put side by side like this.

So this becomes 18-27v-18v. You may then simplify this to 18-45v.
