What is distributive property?

The distributive property is the property that expresses the distributive law of algebraic multiplication. similarly, in polynomial expression we can use the distributive property for example we can write a(c+b)  in the form of (ac+bc).

We have a polynomial expression:

= 5(2x+7)

By using the distributive property we get

=(5×2x+5×7)

= (10x+35)

Thus, the given expression 5(2x+7) is equivalent to (10x+35).
