Question

Verify the property a x (b +c)=(a x b)+(a x c) by taking a = -2/3,b=7/2,c=-1/2

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

a=-2/3. b=7/2. c=-1/2

ax(b+c)=(a x b)+(a x c)

-2/3 x(7/2 -1/2) =(-2/3 x 7/2) +(-2/3x-1/2)

-2/3x(7-1/2) = (-14/6+2/6)

-2/3x6/2 = -14+2/6

-12/6 = -12/6

This is the correct answer
