Given expression:
2x(x + 7)-(3x +1);
To distribute implies to spread a process equally in an expression. Often times, the distributive property is used for expressions inside parentheses;
2x(x + 7)-(3x +1)
Distribute 2x over the first parentheses;
the negative sign distributes over the second part
= (2x² + 14x) - 3x -1
= 2x² + 14x -3x -1
Add like terms;
= 2x² + 11x -1
This expression 2x² + 11x -1 is equal to the given one

First you have make the 2 and a half into 5/2. Then you have to find a common denominator of the two fractions, which would be 8. So the 7/8 you dont need to do anything to but the 5/2 you do... so multiply both the top and the bottom by 4 so you can get 8 on the bottom. that would be 20/8. now you can add them. so 7/8 + 20/8 = 27/8
