So technically, you multiply the number outside the parentheses (which is 8) by the numbers inside the parentheses. But you have to do whatever the math symbol is. If it's division, divide the number outside to the numbers inside. So in this case, it will be  

1) 8 times 3x which will equal to 24x
2) 8 times 5= 40
3) The last step is to put them together which will be 24x + 40. You can't add them together because one is a number and one is a number with a variable. 
4) Answer=24x+40  (hope this helps)

<span> The distributive property is a special way where multiplication is applied to addition of two or more numbers in which each term inside a set of parentheses can be multiplied by a factor outside the parentheses, such as:
</span>

<span>a(b + c) = ab + ac.
</span>

Does this help in any way?

If Cody is draining his hot tub which holds 1,400 gallons of water at a rate of 27 gallons a minute, what impact will it have on
inessss [21]

Facts:

- tub has 1400 gallons

- draining at 27 gallons/minute

How much water will be left after 18 minutes?

We know that after 1 minute, there will be 27 gallons less.

So after 18 minutes, there must be 18 times less water.

27 x 18 = 486

This is how much water was lost in 18 min

So to find out how much he had left after <u>486 is subtracted.</u>

Therefore, the answer is A) -486 gallons
