1. Algebra 1 Section 2.6 Use the distributive property Combine similar terms Note: 7(105) = 735 Also 7(100+5) 7(100) + 7(5) 700 + 35 = 735 3(x+2) 3x + 3(2) 3x + 6 To find the area of the rectangle Distributive Property a(b+c) = ab + ac (b + c)a = ab + ac

2. Simplify using the distributive property 3(x+5) (x-4)6 y(3 – y) (7 + 2w)(-5) -6(w-5z) 3(x + 2y + 4z)

3. You have a bill at a restaurant for $36. You want to leave a tip of 15%. Use the distributive property to calculate the amount of the tip.

4. In the expression 2x + 3y + 6z + 7, the numbers 2,3, and 6 are coefficients. 7 is a constant. Terms are similar (like terms) if they differ only by their coefficients. 9x -5y 1xy 2 3x 6y 4xy 2 Similar terms

5. Simplify 9x + 3x 12z – 8y + 5z + 10y 6x 2 + 4x - 2x 2 + 7x 6 + 2(4 + x) 8 – 5(3 – a) + 3(a +2)
