To expand the expression 7x(7y) using the distributive property, you distribute the 7x to both terms inside the parentheses. This results in 7x * 7y = 49xy. The distributive property allows you to multiply each term inside the parentheses by the term outside the parentheses, simplifying the expression.
To simplify using the distributive property, you distribute a number or variable outside a set of parentheses to each term inside the parentheses. For example, if you have the expression 3(x + 2), you would distribute the 3 to both x and 2 to get 3x + 6. This helps you combine like terms and simplify the expression further.
An expression equal to 15 + 35, using distributive property, is 5(3 + 7). Under distributive property, 5*3=15 and 5*7=35.
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.

The distributive property allows you to multiply each term inside the parentheses by the term outside the parentheses, simplifying the expression.
When using the distributive property to write an expression, you do not simplify within the parentheses before applying the property. The distributive property involves multiplying the term outside the parentheses by each term inside the parentheses. Once you have distributed the term, you can then simplify the resulting expression by combining like terms. Simplifying before distributing would result in an incorrect application of the distributive property.
Here is how to multiply using the distributive property:First, the equation: 9 (x + 3) = 35There must be parentheses for the distributive property, and a number outside those parentheses. The next step is to multiply 9 by x and 9 by 3 individually, and put an addition symbol in the middle.The second equation: 9x + 27 = 35Then, subtract 27: 9x = 18Divide by 9 on both sides: x = 2.That is how you multiply using the distributive property.
Its quiet simple. All you have to know is that when you use the distributive property in math, it's most likely and equation. So you basically remove the parentheses. AKA(expanding the equation)

Distributive PropertyThe Distributive Property is easy to remember, if you recall that "multiplication distributes over addition". Formally, they write this property as "a(b + c) = ab + ac". In numbers, this means, that 2(3 + 4) = 2×3 + 2×4. Any time they refer in a problem to using the Distributive Property, they want you to take something through the parentheses (or factor something out); any time a computation depends on multiplying through a parentheses (or factoring something out), they want you to say that the computation used the Distributive Property.Why is the following true? 2(x + y) = 2x + 2ySince they distributed through the parentheses, this is true by the Distributive Property.Use the Distributive Property to rearrange: 4x - 8The Distributive Property either takes something through a parentheses or else factors something out. Since there aren't any parentheses to go into, you must need to factor out of. Then the answer is "By the Distributive Property, 4x - 8 = 4(x - 2)""But wait!" you say. "The Distributive Property says multiplication distributes over addition, not subtraction! What gives?" You make a good point. This is one of those times when it's best to be flexible. You can either view the contents of the parentheses as the subtraction of a positive number ("x - 2") or else as the addition of a negative number ("x + (-2)"). In the latter case, it's easy to see that the Distributive Property applies, because you're still adding; you're just adding a negative.The other two properties come in two versions each: one for addition and the other for multiplication. (Note that the Distributive Property refers to both addition and multiplication, too, but to both within just one rule.)
That really depends on the specific case.

7*14 = 98. Why does the distributive property need to come into it?
