Question

a (b - c) = ab - ac (say true or false)​

Answer 1

Answer:

true

Step-by-step explanation:

a(b-c)=ab-ac

ab-ac=ab-ac

Answer 2

TRUE : The given equation is true

The given expression shows the distributive property of operations.

Distributive property :

• According to this property, the common factor in any additions or subtractions can be moved out of brackets as a factor
• Also, the factor multiplied by the numbers and then added is the same as the numbers added first and multiplied by the factor.
• Distributive Property : a(b + c) = ab + ac

Calculating the LHS of the given equation to RHS :

LHS expression : a( b - c )

We need to open the brackets in the LHS expression to evaluate it. So, the expression can be further simplified as :

         LHS = a( b - c )

                 = (a*b) - (a*c)

                 = ab - ac

                 = RHS

Thus, LHS can be simplified and evaluated to form the RHS i.e. LHS = RHS, the given equation is True.

Hence, it is proved that the given equation is True.
