Responses
2(a + b) = 2ab
2( a + b ) = 2 ab
2(a + b) = 2a + b
2( a + b ) = 2 a + b
2(a + b) = 2a + 2b
2( a + b ) = 2 a + 2 b
2(a + b) = a + 2b
2( a + b ) = a + 2 b

The proper use of the Distributive Property can be shown by the response:
**2(a + b) = 2a + 2b**
This demonstrates that when you distribute the 2 to both a and b inside the parentheses, you multiply each term by 2.
**2(a + b) = 2a + 2b**
This demonstrates that when you distribute the 2 to both a and b inside the parentheses, you multiply each term by 2.
