Remember!
The Distributive Property states that
a(b + c) = ab + ac. For instance,
2(3 + 5) = 2(3) + 2(5).

You may need to use the Distributive
Property to solve an equation that has
parentheses. Multiply each term inside the
parentheses by the factor that is outside
the parentheses. Then combine like
terms.

Additional Example 2: Using the Distributive
Property to Solve Equations
Solve 5(y – 2) + 6 = 21.
5(y – 2) + 6 = 21
5(y) – 5(2) + 6 = 21
5y – 10 + 6 = 21

Additional Example 3: Problem Solving Application
Troy has three times as many trading
cards as Hillary. Subtracting 8 from the
combined number of trading cards Troy
and Hillary have gives the number of
cards Sean has. If Sean owns 24 trading
cards, how many trading cards does
Hillary own?

1
Understand the Problem
Rewrite the question as a statement.
• Find the number of trading cards that Hillary owns.
List the important information:
• Troy owns 3 times as many trading cards as
Hillary.
• Subtracting 8 from the combined number of
trading cards Troy and Hillary own gives the
number cards Sean owns.
• Sean owns 24 trading cards.

Make a Plan
Let c represent the number of trading cards Hillary
owns. Then 3c represents the number Troy owns.
Troy’s cards + Hillary’s cards – 8 = Sean’s cards
3c
+
c
–8 =
24
Solve the equation 3c + c – 8 = 24 for c.

Solve
3c + c – 8 = 24
4c – 8 = 24

Combine like terms.
Add 8 to both sides.
= 32
4c = 32

Divide both sides by 4.
c=8
Hillary owns 8 cards.

Look Back
Make sure that your answer makes sense in the
original problem. Hillary owns 8 cards. Troy owns
3(8) = 24 cards. Sean owns 24 + 8 – 8 = 24.
