• 5a + 6

• a + 30

• 5a + 30

• 5a - 30

Arjun is helping William to distribute 2 packets of stickers equally among 7 friends. Each packet contains 'c' stickers and 8 stickers are damaged. Use the distributive property to simplify the expression representing this scenario.

2(7c - 8)

• 14c - 16

• 14c + 16

• 7c - 16

• c - 16

Use the distributive property to simplify the expression.

3(2c - 5)

• 6c - 15

• 6c + 15

• 6c + 15

• -6c - 15

Use the distributive property to simplify the expression.

9(2g + 3)

• 18g + 27

• 18g - 27

• -18g - 27

• 18g - 18

Simplify the expression by combining like terms.

8a+4b+2c-3b+a

• 9a+b+2c
