well, the distributive property says that a(b+c) = ab + ac
So, which choice follows that pattern?
Which equation shows how the properties of numbers extend to negative whole numbers by the Distributive Property?
A) −2 + 4 = 4 + (−2)
B) −2(4) = 4(−2)
C) (−2 + 4) + 3 = −2 + (4 + 3)
D) −2(4 + 3) = (−2 x 4) + (−2 x 3)
