For this case we have that by definition, the distributive property of multiplication states that:

$a (b + c) = ab + ac$

So, if we have the following expression:

$7 (8 + 2) = 7 * 8 + 7 * 2$

Then, the example given is a case of distributive property of multiplication.

Answer:

Distributive

Step-by-step explanation:

In any problem with a form of A(b+c) you are distributing the A to both b and c

As you can see in your example, you are distributing the 7 to both the 8 and the two

If you were to solve this problem the final answer would be 70

The property is Distributive

A student solved a quadratic equation as shown here:

djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

x = 3/2 or x = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

The identifiable error the students have is that before the left hand side of the equation is factorized, the right hand side value of 12 ought to be brought to the left hand side, leaving a net value of zero on the right hand side. Then whatever is factored on the left hand side is then equated to zero and then we can find the two values of x after setting each of the individual factors to zero

We proceed as follows;

$2x^{2} + 5x = 12\\2x^{2} + 5x - 12 = 0\\2x^{2} + 8x -3x -12 = 0\\2x(x+4) -3(x+4) = 0\\(2x-3)(x+4) = 0\\2x-3 = 0 or x+4 =0\\2x=3 or x=-4\\x = 3/2 or x= -4\\x = 1.5 or- 4$

Answer:

D) six hundred twenty-nine thousandths > six times one tenth plus three times one hundredth plus two times one thousandth

629000>8403 TRUE

Step-by-step explanation:

A) six times one tenth plus three times one hundredth plus two times one thousandth < six hundred twenty-nine thousandths

8,403.00

<629000 FALSE

B) six times one tenth plus three times one hundredth plus two times one thousandth = six hundred twenty-nine thousandths

8403= 629000 FALSE

C) six hundred twenty-nine thousandths < six times one tenth plus three times one hundredth plus two times one thousandth

629000<8403 FALSE

D) six hundred twenty-nine thousandths > six times one tenth plus three times one hundredth plus two times one thousandth

629000>8403 TRUE

Hope This Helps!!!
