Presentation Transcript

  1. Distributive Property To distribute means to deliver or pass out

  2. Just like the teacher distributed the apples to the children, we will distribute the factor to the terms inside the parenthesis. (5x – 8y + 3) -1 (5x) (-8y) (+ 3) -1 -1 + 8y - 3 -5x Ta da!

  3. Sometimes, the factor will not have a number. Instead, there will just be a negative sign. Like this. (-8a + 6b - 2) - Don’t be afraid! A plain negative sign (-) is the same as -1. Do the same thing. (-8a) (+6b) (-2) - - - 6b + 2 8a Ta da!

  4. Now, let’s try distributive property with negative integers. -4 (-2x - 4y + 5) (-2x) (-4y) (+ 5) -4 -4 + 16y - 20 8x Ta da!
