@CountryBoy15 there were no options lol

OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):

well then read the rules. We are not here to just give answers, and we are surely not here to give answers to test...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm not taking a test?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Try on your own to give us the definition of the distributive property.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

To multiply a single term. etc

OpenStudy (anonymous):

multiplication really!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Kind of.... It means to take whatever term is before the parenthesis and make two new problems out of the one. With this problem you take k and distribute it to both 7 and 9. so instead of k times (nine minus seven) you have (k times 7)minus(k times 9). Got it?
