So to start off on answering we are going to s<span>ubtract 3/5 from both of the sides:
</span><span><span><span><span><span>−1/</span>2</span>u</span>+<span>3/5</span></span>−3/5</span>=<span><span>1/6</span>−<span>3/<span>5
</span></span></span><span><span><span>−1/</span>2</span>u</span>=<span><span>−13/</span><span>30
Okay, so now we are going to mu</span></span><span>ltiply both sides by 2/(-1):
</span><span><span>(<span>2/<span>−1</span></span>)</span>*<span>(<span><span><span>−1/</span>2</span>u</span>)</span></span>=<span><span>(<span>2/<span>−1</span></span>)</span>*<span>(<span><span>−13/</span>30</span><span>)
</span></span></span>The final answer shall be:
u=<span>13/<span>15
I hope this helps! </span></span>

What is the distributive property?
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

The first option: A.) For any numbers a, b, and c, a(b + c) = ab + ac.

Step-by-step explanation:

So anytime that you have a number or letter in front of a set of parenthesis that has numbers within (such as the example problem of: a(b + c)), you need to take the number outside of the parenthesis (a) in this situation) and multiply it to all of the numbers inside the parenthesis, like this:

a(b + c).

Multiply a into b, then multiply a into c, so that the equation looks like this:

ab + ac.

I hope that this helps.
