Use the distributive property to remove the parentheses.
(x - 7)9
To remove the parentheses using the distributive property, we need to multiply each term inside the parentheses by 9.
So, (x - 7)9 becomes:
9(x) - 9(7)
Simplifying further:
9x - 63
To remove the parentheses using the distributive property, you need to distribute the 9 to each term inside the parentheses.
(x - 7) * 9
= 9 * x - 9 * 7
= 9x - 63
Therefore, after removing the parentheses using the distributive property, the expression becomes 9x - 63.
To remove the parentheses using the distributive property, you need to multiply each term inside the parentheses by the number outside the parentheses. In this case, you have (x - 7) multiplied by 9.
To remove the parentheses, you distribute the 9 to both terms within the parentheses.
First, distribute the 9 to the term x:
9(x) - 9(7)
This simplifies to:
9x - 63
Therefore, to remove the parentheses using the distributive property, (x - 7)9 simplifies to 9x - 63.
