Combine Like Terms Using Distributive Property

Simplify the expression: 2(x + 4) + 3(2x - 5)

• 8x - 7

• 8x + 4

• 5x + 23

• -5x + 20

When doing the distributive property, which of the following is true?

• You only distribute to the first two terms in the parenthesis

• You first multiply the variables, then the coefficients 

• You want to multiply the coefficients, then the variables, ad then combine any like terms

• You will never have exponents with variables when you distribute

Simplify:
-3(x - 4) + 3(a - 6)

• -3x + 3a - 6

• -3x + 3a - 30

• -9ab - 6

• -9ab - 30
