the answer is D :) i hope you have a good day
Since you are not distributing at all, you can ignore the parenthesis :)
When ignoring the parenthesis your equation is
18x + 11 - 4x
Then just combine like terms :)
14x + 11
Your answer is C.
Hope this helped!
So 4's facts
we know that 4 times 2=8 and the associative property of multiplication says
a(bc)=(ab)c
so 7(8) (means 7 times 8) means 7((4)(2)) and associative say we can group them and say (7)(4)(2) so (4)((7)(2)) or 4(14) and 4 times 14=56
7 times 8=56
