Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply each term in the parentheses by 14 and then add the products.

Callum Small · Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

14 (x + 8) ... distribute thru the parentheses by multiplying the number directly to the left of the parenthesis, by everything in the parenthesis.

14 (x + 8) = 14 (x) + 14 (8) = 14x + 112 <= = equivalent

this is called the distributive property
