The distributive property, in this case, is to multiply the number outside the parenthesis by the numbers and characters inside the parenthesis:
11 (x - 5)
11x - 55 → Simplified expression.

Hi! I hope you're enjoying your day!
Do you remember what the Distributive Property states?
That's right, a(b+c)=ab+ac (we distributed a by multiplying it times b and c)
Now, simplify:
11(x-5)
Distribute 11 by multiplying it times x and -5:
11 times x = 11x
11 times -5=-55
Hence, the answer is
[tex]\boxed{\boxed{\bold{11x-55}}}[/tex]
Hope everything is clear.
If you have any questions, please comment.
