Question

Use the Distributive Property​ to simplify the expression
4(​c​ - 2)

Answer 1

4c-8

Explanation:

The distributive property would make it so that 4 is multiplied to everything within the parentheses.

4(​c​ - 2)

4 x c = 4c

4 x -2 = -8

Therefore, your answer is 4c-8

Answer 2

4c - 8

Explanation:

Like they said, use Distributive Property

4 x c = 4c

(Keep the subtraction sign because your just multiplying both numbers by 4)

4 x 2 = 8

therefore it would be,

4c - 8
