Problem 42
Question
Use a form of the distributive property to rewrite each algebraic expression without parentheses. $$(5 x+3) 6$$
Step-by-Step Solution
Verified Answer
The given expression, when rewritten without parentheses using the distributive property, becomes \(30x + 18\).
1Step 1: Understanding the expression
The given expression is \( (5x + 3)6 \). Here, we need to apply the distributive property.
2Step 2: Applying the distributive property
The distributive property states that for all real numbers a, b, and c, the equation a(b + c) is equivalent to ab + ac. Apply this to the expression, to get \(5x * 6 + 3 * 6\).
3Step 3: Solving each term
Calculate \(5x * 6\) and \(3 * 6\) separately. This yields \(30x + 18\).
