Answer 1

Answer:

The equation that could result from performing the distributive property

to the given expression is;

$4.5x+27=-9$

Explanation:

Given the expression;

$3(1.5x+9)$

Applying the distributive property;

$\begin{gathered} 3(1.5x+9)=3(1.5x)+3(9) \\ =4.5x+27 \end{gathered}$

Therefore, the equation that could result from performing the distributive property

to the given expression is;

$4.5x+27=-9$
