QuestionUse the distributive property to find an equivalent expression: 6(4+2t)=6(4+2 t)= \square
DO NOT USE ANY SPACES BETWEEN THE NUMBERS OR OPERATION S

Studdy Solution

STEP 1

1. We are asked to use the distributive property to simplify the expression.
2. The distributive property states that a(b+c)=ab+ac a(b+c) = ab + ac .

STEP 2

1. Apply the distributive property to the expression 6(4+2t) 6(4+2t) .
2. Simplify the resulting expression.

STEP 3

Apply the distributive property to the expression 6(4+2t) 6(4+2t) .
6(4+2t)=6×4+6×2t 6(4+2t) = 6 \times 4 + 6 \times 2t

STEP 4

Calculate the products:
6×4=24 6 \times 4 = 24 6×2t=12t 6 \times 2t = 12t

STEP 5

Combine the results to form the equivalent expression:
24+12t 24 + 12t
Thus, the equivalent expression is:
24+12t \boxed{24+12t}
