Question

Rewrite the expression using the distributed Property and for the final answer cant have Double signs/operations

Answer 1

Distributive Property

The distributive property of the product with respect to the sum states that if a product and a sum are to be operated like follows:

x* ( y + z )

Then the result is the product of x by each term separately:

x* ( y + z ) = x*y + x*z

Now, we have the expression:

8 ( 2m + 1 )

Applying the distributive property:

8 * 2m + 8 * 1

16m + 8
