How do you solve an inequality when using the distributive property?
You solve an inequality in the same way as you would solve an equality (equation). The only difference is that if you multiply or divide both sides of an inequality by a negative number, you must reverse the inequality sign. Thus, if you have -3x < 9 to find x, you need to divide by -3. That is a negative number so -3x/(-3) > 9/(-3) reverse inequality x > -3
Explain how to use the distributive property to find 20x12?
The distributive property is not used for simplified multiplication. See http://www.algebrahelp.com/lessons/simplifying/distribution for information about how to use the distributive property to simplify other equations. 20 x 12 is already simplified, so the proper way to solve it is 12 x20 ----- 240 You could potentially factor and use the commutative property to find a simpler equation, ex. 20x12 -- break 20 into 10 and 2 10x2x12 -- multiply 2 by 12 10x24 -- multiply by 10 240
Solve the inequality and enter your solution as an inequality comparing the variable to the solution -3 plus x10?
Solve the inequality and enter your solution as an inequality comparing the variable to the solution. -33+x<-33
Solve the inequality 3 -2 x 7.?
The above is not an inequality as stated.
How would you solve this inequality if it is -2x4?
I would not waste my time, because that's not an inequality.

How is distributive property used when solving an equation?
When applying distributive property to solve an equation, you multiply each term by term. For instance: a(b + c) = ab + ac
Do you always have to use the distributive property to solve algebra equations?
Yes, when there are parenthesis in an equation, you have to use the distibutive property.
How do you use distributive property to solve 6x8?
You don't because you only need to do the multiplication problem.
Can the distributive property be used to solve 4 times 30?
Yes, but it would be a pointless thing to do. The associative property is much more appropriate.
How does the distributive property help solve an equality?
The distributive property breaks down the equation to make it more simple to do. It is often used for mental math. An example is (12x56). (10x50=500)+(2x6=12) then, (500+12=512).
Why is the distributive property needed to solve algebraic equations?
because it tells you that you need to do distribute that number to all the other numbers. if you didnt use it your would come out with the wrong answer... not all the time but in most cases your answer will be incorrect if you do not use the distributive property
How do you use the distributive property to solve 10 times 147?
To use the distributive property to solve (10 \times 147), you can break down 147 into two simpler components, such as (100 + 40 + 7). Then, apply the distributive property: [ 10 \times 147 = 10 \times (100 + 40 + 7) = (10 \times 100) + (10 \times 40) + (10 \times 7). ] Calculating each term gives (1000 + 400 + 70 = 1470), so (10 \times 147 = 1470).
What dose distributive property in math?
The distributive property in math states that when you multiply a number by a sum, you can distribute the multiplication to each addend within the parentheses. This can be expressed as ( a(b + c) = ab + ac ). It helps simplify calculations and is widely used in algebra to expand expressions and solve equations.
What is the value of n if -13(n - 888) -780?
that's my bad wrong question, solve for n and do distributive property then the rest is addition and subtraction
Solve the inequality 4a plus 9-6a -5?
Without an inequality sign it can't be considered to be an equation but it can be simplified to: 4-2a
How do you solve equation involving parenthesis?
It depends on the particular equation, of course. You can use several tricks, including eliminating things outside the parentheses, and using the distributive property. Here is one example: 2(x+3) = 10 Divide both sides by 2: x + 3 = 5. (The remainder should be easy to solve. Another soution, using the distributive property: 2(x+3) = 10 2x + 6 = 10 Again, I am assuming you know how to solve equations WITHOUT parentheses, so I won't give the full solution here.
