Distributive Property with Equations

Which is the correct step for the next row? 4(c + 7) = 20 4c + 28 = 20 ?

• divide by 4 on both sides

• multiply both sides by 4

• subtract 28 from both sides

• add 28 to both sides

Which is the correct step for the next row?

-3(b + 4) = -18

-3b - 12 = -18

?

• subtract 12 from both sides

• add 12 to both sides

• divide by -3 on both sides

• multiply by -3 on both sides

8(7-y) = -24

• y= 2

• y= 10
