Question

Simplify using the distributive property.
8(y + 12)
8y=12
20y
20 - y
8y + 96​

Answer 1

Answer:

Correct choice is D). 8y + 96​.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression is $8\left(y+12\right)$.

Now question says to simplify that expression using distributive property then find the correct matching choice from the given choices:

A). 8y=12

B). 20y

C). 20 - y

D). 8y + 96​

So let's distribute 8 by using distributive property

$a\left(b+c\right)=a\left(b\right)+a\left(c\right)$

$8\left(y+12\right)=8\left(y\right)+8\left(12\right)$

$8\left(y+12\right)=8y+96$

Hence correct choice is D). 8y + 96​.
