Given the numerical expression:

8(3x + 2)

Determine the equivalent of the expression.

Solution:

in order to determine the equivalent of the expression, we simply needed to distribute 8 to each value inside the parenthesis. When we say distribute, this basically means that we need to multiply 8 to each value.

= 8 (3x + 2)

= 24x + 16

Final answer:

= 24x + 16
