Prove the Distributive Property
Distributive Property Definition:
a(b + c) = a(b) + a(c)
We read this three ways:
- The sum of a and b times c
- a times b plus c
- The product of a times b plus c
Plug in a = , b = , c = :
0(0 + 0) = 0(0) + 0(0)
We read this two ways:
- 0 and 0 times 0
- 0 times 0 plus 0
Simplifying, we get:
0(0) = 0 + 0
0 = 0
