Kate is going to the fair with three of her friends. It will cost $5.00 to get in and an additional $2 per ride. Create an equat

ion to represent the cost for the whole group and then use the distributive property to expand the expression and solve the problem.
Expression: (4*5)+(2*5)=30
So I have the expression I just need to do the distributive property and I don't understand how to do that.

Answer:

5 * ( 4 + 2 ) = 5 * 6 = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

(5*4) + (2*5) = 20 + 10 = 30

5*4 = 4 people need to pay $5

2*5 = $2 for 5 rides

Distributive Property:

(5*4) + (2*5) = 5 * ( 4 + 2 )

5 * ( 4 + 2 ) = 5 * 6 = 30

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, so the distributive property allows us to apply a number evenly over a whole set of numbers.

Equation: 4 (2 x 5) (we distribute the 4 to all terms, since each person experiences those charges.) The answer is $40 for the whole group.
