Use the distributive property to fine the price of 7 CDs that cost 14.99 each

104.93

Step-by-step explanation:

There are all sorts of ways you may approach this. It all depends on how you partition (split up) the $14.99. Thus there are many ways that your solution can be correct.

I chose: Split $14.99 into

14+0.99

So we have:

7(14+0.99)

The distributive property permits every thing inside the brackets to be multiplied by the 7

So we have:

(7×14)+(7×0.99)

98+6.93

104.93

If you so chose you could split up the seven instead. You are still demonstrating the distributive property.

I chose to split 7 into 5+2 so we now have

14.99(5+2)

Trust me! this will give you the same answer as above.

b

step-by-step explanation:

given

- 2 (3x + 12y - 5 - 17x - 16y + 4 )

simplify the parenthesis by collecting like terms

= - 2 (- 14x - 4y - 1) ← distribute the parenthesis by - 2

= 28x + 8y + 2 → b

darn right!
