Question 1 (6.PAR.6.5) - Apply the distributive property to the expression 24x + 18y.

Answer 1

To apply the distributive property to the expression 24x + 18y, we can factor out the greatest common factor (GCF) of 6 from both terms.

The GCF of 24x and 18y is 6.

We can express 24x + 18y as follows:

6(4x) + 6(3y)

Now, we can distribute the 6 to each term in the parentheses:

(6 * 4x) + (6 * 3y)

This simplifies to:

24x + 18y

Answer 2

no answer it dummy

Answer 3

Apologies for the confusion. Let's apply the distributive property to the expression 24x + 18y.

The distributive property states that for any numbers a, b, and c:
a(b + c) = ab + ac

In this case, the expression we have is 24x + 18y. To apply the distributive property, we can factor out the greatest common factor (GCF) of 6 from both terms.

The GCF of 24x and 18y is 6.

We can express 24x + 18y as follows:

6(4x) + 6(3y)

Now, we can distribute the 6 to each term in the parentheses:

6 * 4x + 6 * 3y

This simplifies to:

24x + 18y

So, when we apply the distributive property to the expression 24x + 18y, it remains the same.
