Peter solved an equation as shown below. When did Peter apply the distributive property?

To determine when Peter applied the distributive property in solving an equation, we would need to examine the steps he took in his solution. The distributive property states that \( a(b + c) = ab + ac \). It is typically applied when you have a term outside of parentheses that needs to be multiplied by each term inside the parentheses.

If you can provide the specific equation or steps Peter took to solve the equation, I can help identify exactly where the distributive property was applied.
