Question

Name the property that justifies the given statement 2x_2y=2(x_y)

Answer 1

Answer:

Distributive property

Step-by-step explanation:

With the distributive property, it is possible to simplify expressions that consist of an expression term such as (a + b) being multiplied by one singular term such as c given as follows

c ×(a + b) = c·a + c·b

Factoring, which is the reverse  use of the distributive property enables the difference or the sum of two products, each having a common factor to be the presented as the difference  or the sum of two numbers multiplied by the common factor as follows;

2·x - 2·y = 2·(x - y).
