Question 1
1.
Which DP Strategy would I use to solve this problem?
3x + 2(2x - 1)
I have a
negative
out front, so change the sign of everything inside the parentheses.
This is a
double distriubutive property problem
, so I solve them one at a time and combine like terms.
Question 2
2.
Simplify the expression.

Question 3
3.
Which DP Strategy would I use to solve this problem? (There are TWO of them!)
- (9x - 14 + 5)
I have a
negative
out front, so change the sign of everything inside the parentheses.

Question 7
7.
Which DP Strategy would I use to solve this problem?
4(2a + 2) + 2(a - 4)
I have a
negative
out front, so change the sign of everything inside the parentheses.
This is a
double distriubutive property problem
, so I solve them one at a time and combine like terms.

Question 9
9.
Which DP Strategy would I use to solve this problem?
(14 - 6z)(5)
I have a
negative
out front, so change the sign of everything inside the parentheses.
This is a
double distriubutive property problem
, so I solve them one at a time and combine like terms.

This has a
floating term
, so I ignore it for now and start with the distributive property.
I have to
multiply from the back
.
There are
more than two terms inside the parentheses
...don't forget to multiply them all!
