Question

4(x + 2) represents the area of the rectangle above. Which expression below is equivalent by the Distributive Property?

Answer 1

Answer:

option B ( 4x + 8 )

Step-by-step explanation:

4(x + 2) represents the area of the rectangle

We have to solve the expression by distributive property

distributive law is represented by [ a(x+y) = ax + ay ]

4(x+2) = 4 (x) + 4 × 2

          = 4x + 8

Therefore, option B ( 4x + 8 ) will be the answer.

Answer 2

4(x + 2 = 4x + 2(4)
= 4x + 8

answer 
4x + 8
