O Distributive Property
O Identity Property
Which answer is it

Answer 1

Answer:

C) Distributive Property

Step-by-step explanation:

You're distributing in the 3 when you multiply it by the 5 and the 2 in the algebraic process:

 ➦  ➦

3•(5 + 2) = (3 • 5) + (3 • 2)

So, the 3 was distributed between the 5 and 2 when you multiplied.

Hence, this is the distributive property.
