Answer:
Distributive Property is demonstrated in equation below.
5(8x-4) - 10 = 40x - 20 -10
Step-by-step explanation:
Distributive Property:
The distributive property lets us multiply a sum by multiplying each addend separately and then add the products.
Normally,students does not understand by these word definition we will see some examples based on that.
[tex]A(B\pm C)=A\times B \pm A\times C[/tex]
Here A is multiplied by B and then addition sign or Subtraction sign and then A is multiplied by C is done by distributive property that means we are distributing A to B and C.
Here given,
5(8x-4) - 10 = 40x - 20 -10
by applying distributive property we get
[tex]5(8x-4) - 10 = 5\times8x-5\times 4 -10\\=40x -20-10\\5(8x-4) - 10 =40x-30[/tex]
