Answer:

The answer is the Distributive law of Multiplication

Explanation:

4(3x-7)

By taking 4 and multiplying it against 3x, you get 12x

Then taking 4 and multiplying it against -7, you get -28

Answer:

Distributive law of Multiplication

Explanation:

Distributive law of Multiplication is: a(b+c)=ab+ac

In your example a=4, b=3x and c=-7

So you have 4(3x+(-7))=4*3*x+4*(-7)=12x-28
