Question

What is the value of the expression (y+6)*7

Answer 1

7y+42

Explanation:

If I am doing this correctly (so take it with a grain of salt from just waking up) you would multilpy 7 with the expressions in the ( )

So it would be 7*y= 7y

Then 7*6= 42

So it would be 7y+42 I think

Sorry if it is incorrect/ doesn't answer your question. Good luck!

Answer 2

`\displaystyle \large{7y+42}`

Explanation:

We are given the expression
`\displaystyle \large{(y+6) \cdot 7}`. Use the distributive property to simplify the expression.

Distributive Property

`\displaystyle \large{a(b+c)=ab+ac}`

To say it simply, you multiply the outside with the insides. Therefore, from the expression:-

`\displaystyle \large{y \cdot 7 + 6 \cdot 7}`

Evaluate:-

`\displaystyle \large{\boxed{7y+42}}`
