Question

Which equation shows the correct use of the Distributive Property?
−4(3/2x−1/2)=−15

A. 6x + 4 = –15
B. 2x – 1/2 = –15
C. –6x – 2 = –15
D. –6x + 2 = –15

Answer 1

Answer:

D.

Step-by-step explanation:

-4(3/2x - 1/2) = -15 (multiply -4 and 3/2x AND -4 with -1/2)

-6x + 2 = -15

(Negative times positive is negative, negative and a negative multiplied is positive.)
