Rewrite the expression 3x(x + 3)

Question

using the Distributive Property.

Answer 1

To rewrite the expression \( 3x(x + 3) \) using the Distributive Property, you need to distribute \( 3x \) to both terms inside the parentheses.

Here's how it's done:

\[ 3x(x + 3) = 3x \cdot x + 3x \cdot 3 \]

Now, simplify each term:

\[ = 3x^2 + 9x \]

So, the expression \( 3x(x + 3) \) rewritten using the Distributive Property is \( 3x^2 + 9x \).
