Let's try some review problems!

REMEMBER! When you DISTRIBUTE, you multiply the number outside the parentheses by each term inside parentheses.

Multiple Choice

Use the distributive Property. Which is the correct answer?

 2(x + 3) 

• 2x+3

• 2x+5

• 2x+6

Multiple Choice

Use the distributive Property. Which is the correct answer?

-3(x - 4) 

• -3x + 12

• -3x - 4

• -3x + 7

• -3x - 12

Multiple Choice

Use the Distributive Property. Which is the correct answer?

−5(7+2x)

• 2-3x

• -35-10x

• -12+10x

• -35+10x

Multiple Choice

Which is the correct for the next row? HINT! Distribute the 2.

2(x + 3)=16

• 2x + 3 = 16

• 2x + 6 = 16

Multiple Choice

Now it looks like a two-step equation!

Which is the correct for the next row?

2(x + 3)=16

2x + 6 = 16

• add 6 to both sides

• divide both sides by 6

• subtract 6 from both sides

• multiply both sides by 6

Multiple Choice

Now it looks like a one-step equation!

Which is the correct for the next row?

2(x + 3)=16

2x + 6 = 16

2x = 10

• add 2 to both sides

• multiply both sides by 2

• subtract 2 from both sides

• divide both sides by 2

Multiple Choice

What Emoji Is This?

• Cool

• Sad

• Winking

• Love

Multiple Choice

What is the first step to solve this equation?

HINT! The number in front of parentheses is a -1.

Remember to take the sign in FRONT of each term!

• Subtract 4a from 11

• Distribute -1 to 11 and 4a

• Distribute -1 to 11 and -4a

• Combine like terms 11 and -5

Multiple Choice

Solve the equation. Make sure to write it down on paper FIRST!

4( x + 2) = 16

• x = -2

• x = 0

• x = 1

• x = 2

Multiple Choice
