Distribution Equations

Use the Distributive Property to solve the equation.

4( x + 2) = 16

• -2

• 0

• 1

• 2

Expand the expression:

5 ( -2x + 3)

• -10x + 15

• 10x - 15

• 3x + 8

• -10x + 3

Simplify the expression:   
5(2 - 7n)

•  52 - 57n

• 10 - 7n

• 10 - 35n

• 10 + 35n

Simplify the expression: 
3(2x+1)+2(x-4)

• 8x-3

• 8x+11

• 4x-5

• 8x-5

The fist step to solving the equation is to...

• distribute the 3

• add 2 to both sides

• subtract y from both sides

• divide both sides by 3

3(4y-8)=12

• 3

• 4

• -6

• -2

Distribute -2(6 + x) - 8x = -16

• -12 - 2x - 8x = -16

• 12 + 2x - 8x = -16

• -12 + x - 8x = -16

• -12 - 2x + 16x = -16

The first step to solving the equation is to...

• add 6x to both sides

• add 2x to both sides

• subtract 5 from both sides

• distribute 3

• 5
• -5
• 7
• -7

Which of the following is equivalent to -9(2g - 3) ?
