Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 7.73 Distributive property and expanding expressions skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery

Which step correctly applies the distributive property to -5(x + 2y + 6)?

A-5(x + 2y + 6) = -5x + 10y - 30

B-5(x + 2y + 6) = -5x + 2y - 30

C-5(x + 2y + 6) = -5x - 10y - 30

D-5(x + 2y + 6) = -5x - 10y + 6

Solution & Explanation:Distribute -5 to each term inside the parentheses, including the sign on every term. That gives -5x - 10y - 30.

Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery

Which equation is a correct expansion of -2(4x + 3y - 1)?

A-2(4x + 3y - 1) = -8x - 6y - 1

B-2(4x + 3y - 1) = -8x - 6y + 2

C-2(4x + 3y - 1) = -8x + 3y + 2

D-2(4x + 3y - 1) = -8x + 6y + 2

Solution & Explanation:Distribute -2 to each term inside the parentheses, including the sign on every term. That gives -8x - 6y + 2.

Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery

Which step correctly distributes in 3(2x - y - 5)?

A3(2x - y - 5) = 6x + 3y - 15

B3(2x - y - 5) = 6x - 3y - 15

C3(2x - y - 5) = 6x - 3y - 5

D3(2x - y - 5) = 6x - y - 15

Solution & Explanation:Distribute 3 to each term inside the parentheses, including the sign on every term. That gives 6x - 3y - 15.
