Expand 13(q−6) using the Distributive Property

Question

1/3q−6

1/3q−2

-1/3q+6

−1/3q+2

Answer 1

To expand 13(q-6) using the Distributive Property, we multiply each term inside the parentheses by 13 and distribute the 13 to both terms:

13(q-6) = 13*q - 13*6

Simplifying further:

= 13q - 78

Answer 2

I think it is a typo and means:
(1/3) (q-6)
which is
1/3 q − 2

Answer 3

Yes, you are correct. I apologize for the confusion.

To expand (1/3)(q-6) using the Distributive Property, we multiply (1/3) to both terms inside the parentheses:

(1/3)(q-6) = (1/3)q - (1/3)6

Simplifying further:

= 1/3 q - 2
