2(x + 3) = 18
or did you mean that solution would be x = 18?
then 2(x + 3) = 42
The distributive property is where you will "distribute" a term outside of a set of grouping symbols into all the terms within the set of grouping symbols. For example, to distribute 6(x+3), you would multiply 6 by x and by 3, to get 6x + 18. The distributive property is usually the property used most often to solve for variables in linear equations. For example, in the linear equation, 3(x+2)=4+x, you would have to distribute the 3, since x and 2 are not like terms.
U can subtract 18 from each side of the equation.
x = 12 y = 2 (12,2) satifies the equation
6*147 = 6*(150 - 3) = 6*150 - 6*3 = 900 - 18 = 882. That uses the distributive property of multiplication over subtraction. The above is far simpler than using the distributive property of multiplication over addition 6*147 = 6*(140 + 7) but then do you know your 14 times table? I did learn it at school but if you did not, = 6*(100 + 40 + 7) = 600 + 240 + 42 = 882
x + 10 = 18 18 - 10 = x 18 -10 = 8 x = 8
6(2 + 1) = 18==========

Distributive property of 3x16
Commutative propertry
The "distributive property" involves multiplication and addition, and there must be at least three numbers involved.
The distributive property does not apply to addition by itself. So, unfortunately, the question does not make sense.
-18
18
18 x 27 = (18 x 20) + (18 x 7)
(6x3) + (7x3) = 18 + 21 = 39
18(4) 72 I distributed the 18 into the 4 and using multiplication I got 72.
