Distributive Property Combining

This is an example of ____________ _____________.

• distributive property

• combining terms

• math thingy

( 2 + 3c ) = 14 + 21c The two expressions are equal. True or False?

• True

• False

Use the distributive property to simplify the expression.

2(10p - 20w)

• 32pw

• 20p - 40w

• 20p + 40w

• 20p - 20w

The expression is: 4 ( 3x - 6 - 2x)

The next step is: 12x - 24 - 8x

What is the final, simplified expression?

• That's it. It is simplified.

• 20x - 24

• -12x - 8x

• 4x - 24

-4(-4d - 5)

• -16d+20

• 16+20

• 16d+20

• 16s-20

Distribute and then Combine Like Terms:

2(4x + 7) + 3x

• 8x + 14

• 8x + 7

• 11x + 7

• 11x + 14

Distribute then combine like terms

2(9x - 2) + 2

• 18x - 11

• -52x - 50

• -20 + 50x

• 18x - 2

Distribute then combine like terms

6(n - 9) + 9

• 27n - 60

• -30 + 9n

• -26 + 9n

• 6n - 45

Distribute then combine like terms

-(3b - 10) - 7b

• 12 - 10b

• -10b + 10

• -10 + 2b

• 8 - 10b

Distribute then combine like terms

-a + 5(-8a - 9)

• -6 + 20a

• -41a - 45

• -41a - 40

• -13 + 20a
