4. The Distributive Property
Continue to next subchapter

Exercise 1 Page 222

Recall the Distributive Property.

7a+14

Practice makes perfect
We want to simplify the given expression. To do it, we will use the Distributive Property. We will distribute 7 to the terms inside the parentheses.
7(a+2)
7a+7(2)
7a+14
Since 7a and 14 are not like terms, the expression cannot be simplified further.
