Question

PLZ HELP fill in the blanks ​

Answer 1

5 x (2 + 9) = (5 x 2) + (5 x 9)
Ok done. Thank to me :>

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First, to solve the problem, you must distribute the 5 to the (2 + 9). Which ends you up with 10 + 45. Which would give you 55, but we aren't solving it.

So instead, when you are distributing, you are taking the number next to the parentheses (5) and multiplying it into the parentheses like this:

(5 x 2) + (5 + 9).

That is your answer. Hope this helps.
