Question

Use the Distributive Property to expand 4(x+3)

Answer 1

4x+12

Explanation:

4(x+3)=4x+12.

You use the distributive property by multiplying both numbers in the parentheses by 4

Answer 2

4x +12

Explanation:

Distributive property: a*(b + c) = (a *b)+(a *c)

Here, a = 4 ; b = x and c = 3

4*(x + 3) = 4*x + 4*3

= 4x + 12
