4. The Distributive Property
Continue to next subchapter

Exercise 39 Page 226

Recall the Distributive Property.

19y+5

Practice makes perfect
We want to simplify the given expression. To do it, we will use the Distributive Property to factor out y from the two variable terms.
7y+6-1+12y
7y+12y+6-1
(7+12)y+6-1
19y+6-1
19y+5
Since 19y and 5 are not like terms, the expression cannot be simplified further.
