Answer 3

the distributive property basically says that if you have something that looks like this:

a(b+c)

then you can rewrite it like this:

a(b) + a(c)

for example, lets look at this problem:

5(10+x)

we can rewrite it like this:

5(10)+5(x)
50+5x

so your equation would look like this:

2(x+y)=2x+2y
