Answer:

3(-8 + 1) = 3(-8) + 3(1)

Explanation:

The distributive property is quite literally when you distribute numbers. This is the only instance of that happening here

The first two are the communitive property of addition, and the last one is the communitive property of multiplication.

Cheers.
