1 answer

To expand the expression \( 13(q - 6) \) using the Distributive Property, you multiply 13 by each term inside the parentheses:

\[ 13(q - 6) = 13 \cdot q - 13 \cdot 6 \]

This gives:

\[ = 13q - 78 \]

None of the provided responses match the correct expansion of \( 13(q - 6) \). The correct result is \( 13q - 78 \).
