Use the distributive property to find the equivalent expression to 4(2x+6) Show work.

8x + 24

Step-by-step explanation:

The distributive property is multiplying the outside number by the terms inside the parentheses, so:

4(2x + 6)

(multiply 4 by 2x)

4 x 2x = 8x

(then, multiply 4 by 6)

4 x 6 = 24

Lastly, not changing the order everything was in, you would get:

8x + 24
