Use the distributive property to simplify the expression below: −3(2d − 1) + 4d

distributive property just means multiply. When you have a number outside of () and numbers inside of () you need to multiply the number outside of () to each number inside of ()

you are "distributing" the number outside to each of the numbers inside.
