Expand 5(y+2) using the distributive property
To expand 5(y+2) using the distributive property, we multiply 5 by each term inside the parentheses:
= 5 * y + 5 * 2
= 5y + 10
To expand 5(y+2) using the distributive property, you multiply each term inside the parentheses by the number outside the parentheses.
First, distribute 5 to y:
5 * y = 5y
Then, distribute 5 to 2:
5 * 2 = 10
Therefore, expanding 5(y+2) using the distributive property is:
5(y+2) = 5y + 10
To expand 5(y + 2) using the distributive property, you need to multiply each term inside the parentheses by the number outside the parentheses (in this case, 5).
So, let's start by multiplying 5 by y:
5 * y = 5y
Next, multiply 5 by 2:
5 * 2 = 10
Now, put these two results together:
5(y + 2) = 5y + 10
Therefore, the expanded form of 5(y + 2) using the distributive property is 5y + 10.
