Expand 13(q−6) using the Distributive Property
1/3q−6
1/3q−2
-1/3q+6
−1/3q+2
To expand 13(q-6) using the Distributive Property, we multiply each term inside the parentheses by 13 and distribute the 13 to both terms:
13(q-6) = 13*q - 13*6
Simplifying further:
= 13q - 78
I think it is a typo and means:
(1/3) (q-6)
which is
1/3 q − 2
Yes, you are correct. I apologize for the confusion.
To expand (1/3)(q-6) using the Distributive Property, we multiply (1/3) to both terms inside the parentheses:
(1/3)(q-6) = (1/3)q - (1/3)6
Simplifying further:
= 1/3 q - 2
To expand 13(q-6) using the Distributive Property, you need to distribute 13 to both the terms inside the parentheses.
First, multiply 13 by q:
13 * q = 13q
Next, multiply 13 by -6:
13 * -6 = -78
Therefore, expanding 13(q-6) using the Distributive Property gives you:
13q - 78
So the answer is 13q - 78.
