1 Multiply; 3 ( y + 8 ) =
2. Multiply; -4 (y-10) =
1 Multiply; 3 ( y + 8 ) =
3y + 24
2. Multiply; -4 (y-10) =
-4y + 40
3 y + 3*8 = 3 y + 24
-4y - (-4*10) = -4y + 40
To solve multiplication equations like the ones you've provided, we need to distribute the number outside the parentheses to every term inside the parentheses. Let's break it down step by step:
1. Multiply; 3 ( y + 8 ) =
To solve this equation, we need to distribute the number 3 to both terms inside the parentheses:
3 * y + 3 * 8 = 3y + 24
So, the result of multiplying 3 by (y + 8) is 3y + 24.
2. Multiply; -4 (y-10) =
Similarly, for this equation, we need to distribute the number -4 to both terms inside the parentheses:
-4 * y - 4 * 10 = -4y - 40
Thus, when we multiply -4 by (y-10), the result is -4y - 40.
Remember, distributing is an essential step in solving multiplication equations.
