Question

Select all of the following that are examples of the Distributive Property? (A) 3(x + 4) = 3x + 12 (B) 2(4 + 8) = 24 + 28 (C) x(5 + 5) = 5x (D) 7(1 + 9) = 7 + 9 (E) 6(2 + 1 + 5) = 12 + 6 + 30 (F) 7(5 - 4) = 35 - 28

Answer 1

`3(x + 4) = 3x + 12\:\boxed{\tt Yes}`

`(4 + 8) = 24 + 28\:\boxed{\tt No}`

`x(5 + 5) = 5x\:\boxed{\tt Yes}`

`7(1 + 9) = 7 + 9\:\boxed{\tt No}`

`6(2 + 1 + 5) = 12 + 6 + 30\:\boxed{\tt No}`

`7(5 - 4) = 35 - 28\:\boxed{\tt No}`
