Answer:

7x + 70

Explanation:

As implied in the question, when you use the distributive property you need to distribute the factor outside the parenthesis to the ones inside the parenthesis.

When we look at 7(8+x+2)

You need to multiply all the factors inside the parenthesis by the 7 outside the parenthesis.

to break it down, do

7*8 = 56

7*x = 7x

7*2 = 14

From here, just add 56+14 to get 70 and then write out your answer as 7x + 70.

Answer:

Explanation:

To distribute means to multiply everything outside the parenthesis with everything inside the parenthesis, so in this case 7x8 then 7(x) then 7x2 so that is equal to 56 + 7x + 14, so combine the 56+14 so we get 7x + 70. I hope '7' is part of the problem and not the question number
