Question

the formula for the area of a trapezoid is 1/2 (a+b)h. apply the distributive property twice to write this formula in another way

Answer 1

Ok, help me help you. I want to make you get the answer. Which is the distributive property?

Answer 2

1/2.......idk

Answer 3

it says this: a*(b + c) = ab + ac

Answer 4

Do you follow me?

Answer 5

theres no (c) i equation. no i do not follow

Answer 6

The distributive property is a law of algebra.

It is a*(b +c) = ab + ac

For example, if you have
3 * ( 2 + 4), you can do 3 * (6) and that is 18

Or you can do:
(3*2) + (3*4) = 6 + 12 = 18

Answer 7

yes?
