Question

Use the distributive property to decide which of the following is Equivalent to -3(4-2x)? select all that apply

-3(4)-2x
-3(4)-3(-2x)
-12+6x
-6x

Answer 1

To distribute this problem, we need to multiply each term inside the parenthesis by the term outside them.

-3(4-2x)
(-3)4 - (3)(-2x)
-12 - (-6x)
-12 + 6x

So the second and third answer should be correct.
