This video lesson, part of Tennessee's at-home learning series for sixth-grade math, focuses on using the distributive property to write equivalent expressions. The lesson begins with a review of the commutative, associative, and distributive properties. It then demonstrates how to apply the distributive property to create equivalent expressions, using models and substitution to prove equivalence. The lesson includes practice problems and concludes with instructions for further practice.

How do you represent the expression 2 times (A + B) using a model?

• By writing it as a fraction

• By using a circle diagram

• By creating two groups of A + B

• By drawing a single line

What is the equivalent expression for 2 times (A + B)?

• A + B

• 2A + 2B

• A + 2B

• 2A + B

What values are used to prove the equivalence of expressions?

• A = 3, B = 4

• A = 4, B = 5

• A = 5, B = 6
