5(6 + x) expanded using distributive property is 30 + 5x
Solution:
Given that, we have to expand using distributive property
Given expression is:
5(6 + x)
Let us first understand about distributive property
The distributive property lets you multiply a sum by multiplying each addend separately and then add the products.
The distributive property can be represented as:
a(b + c) = ab + bc
Thus, from given expression,
[tex]5(6+x) = (5 \times 6) + (5 \times x)\\\\5(6+x) = 30 + 5x[/tex]
Thus the given algebraic expression is expanded using distributive property
