Question

Answer the following questions:

(1.) Use the Distributive Property to simplify the expression.

8(c − 5)

(2.)Use the Distributive Property to simplify the expression.

7(2y + 8)

(3.)Use the Distributive Property to simplify the expression.

9(e − 4)

Answer 1

(1.) Use the Distributive Property to simplify the expression 8(c − 5):

8(c - 5) = 8c - 8 * 5 = 8c - 40

(2.) Use the Distributive Property to simplify the expression 7(2y + 8):

7(2y + 8) = 7 * 2y + 7 * 8 = 14y + 56

(3.) Use the Distributive Property to simplify the expression 9(e − 4):

9(e - 4) = 9e - 9 * 4 = 9e - 36

Answer 2

(1.) 8(c − 5) = 8c - 8 * 5 = 8c - 40

(2.) 7(2y + 8) = 7 * 2y + 7 * 8 = 14y + 56

(3.) 9(e − 4) = 9e - 9 * 4 = 9e - 36
