Example Question #68 : How To Find The Distributive Property
What is the value of in the equation below?
In order to solve this problem, the distributive property must be applied. See below:
The number 5 is multipled by the x, and then by the other 5 within the parenthesis:
The number 25 is then added to both side of the equation.
125 divided by 5 equals 25, which is therefore the correct answer.

Answer:
Example Question #635 : Numbers And Operations
Multiply:
In this problem, you must apply the distributive property and multiply y by each item in the parentheses.
Remember that y times y will result in .
Example Question #636 : Numbers And Operations
First do the addition, because operations in parentheses take precedent. Then take the product to find the answer:
Example Question #637 : Numbers And Operations
Order of Operations tells us that the operation in parentheses must be done before the multiplication:
