Answer:

First option

Explanation:

The result of first expression:

7(6+z) multiply 7 with inside the parenthesis

7(6+z) = 42 + 7z

the result of second expression:

since we need to do multiplying first,

7*6 = 42 and 7*z = 7z

then we add them

42 + 7z this is the same result we found for the first equation
