Use the distributive property to fill in the blanks below.
9 *(3 + 5) = (9 x )+ (9x )
)

Step-by-step explanation:

9 *(3 + 5) = (9 x 3)+ (9x 5)

the formula for distributive property is a×(b+c) = (a×b) + (a×c)

because linear equations are a lot simpler than quadratics equations, and linear equations formula is a lot easier to memorize. that's why i think they're harder.
