Question

What is an example equivalent to

9(5x-7y+4z) that results from using the distributive property

Answer 1

45x - 63 y + 36 z

Explanation:

When I think of the distributive property, I imagine giving the outside term to everyone on the inside (multiplying).

9 (5x - 7y + 4z)

= 9 (5x) + 9 (-7y) + 9 (4z)

= 45x - 63 y + 36 z

Good luck with your math!
