7. Use the commutative property of addition to write an expression equivalent to the following.
10a + b
The answer is .
8(x + 1)
− (3x + y)
The answer is .
3(4x + 5y + 3z)
3(4x + 5y + 3z) =
11. Use the distributive property to find the product.

22. To demonstrate the distributive property geometrically, represent the area of the larger f d
rectangle in two ways, first as width times length and second as the sum of the areas
of the smaller rectangles.
f+ d
The area of the larger rectangle obtained by multiplying width times length is .
(Do not simplify.)
The area of the larger rectangle obtained by finding the sum of the areas of the two smaller rectangles is
. (Simplify your answer.)
