Answer: 8x+7
Explanation:
The first thing you need to do is multiply (x+1) by 7 (this is the part where you use the distributive property). x times 7 is 7x and 1 times 7 is 7. So now you should have x+7x+7. Now just combine like terms. You can add x and 7x but you can't add the one because there is no variable (x) in it. Your final answer should be 8x+7. Hope this helps!
