Question

. If a = 2; b= -3; and c = -4 Prove that a (b + c) = (a * b) + (a * c) ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a = 2; b= -3; and c = -4

So,

LHS

= a(b + c)

= 2((-3) + (-4))

= 2(-3-4)

= 2(-7)

= -14

RHS

=  (a * b) + (a * c) ​

= (2 * (-3)) + (2 * (-4))

= (-6) + (-8)

= -6-8

= -14

Therefore LHS = RHS

=> a (b + c) = (a * b) + (a * c) ​ [Proved]
