Lesson 1.5- The Distributive Property, pg. 26 Objectives: To use the distributive property to evaluate expressions. To use the distributive property to simplify expressions.
Vocabulary • Term: a number, a variable, or a product or quotient of numbers and variables. Ex. 2x² + 6x + 5 • Like terms: terms that contain the same variables, with corresponding variables having the same exponent. Ex. 3a² + 5a² +2a • Equivalent expressions: expressions that denote the same number. Like terms
Simplest form: an expression is in simplest form when it has no like terms or parentheses. • Coefficient: the numerical factor of a term. Ex. 5x + 6 coefficient constant
Distributive Property • For any numbers a, b, and c, a(b + c) = ab + ac and (b + c)a = ba + ca a(b -c) = ab - ac and (b - c)a = ba - ca

DINING OUT: The Ross family recently dined at an Italian restaurant. Each of the four family members ordered a pasta dish that cost $11.50, a drink that cost $1.50, and dessert that cost $2.75. a). Write an expression that could be used to calculate the cost of the Ross’ dinner before adding tax and a tip. 4(11.5 + 1.5 + 2.75) b) What was the cost of dining out for the Ross family? $63.00
ORIENTATION: Madison college conducted a three-day orientation for incoming freshmen. Each day, an average of 110 students attended the morning session and an average of 160 students attended the afternoon. • Write an expression that could be used to determine the total number of incoming freshmen who attended the orientation. 3(110 + 160) • What was the attendance for all three days of orientation? 810
Summary • When using the distributive property multiply the factor on the outside times every term on the inside of the parentheses. Ex. 5(x + 6) 5x + 5(6) 5x + 30 • Simplify: Remove parentheses and combine like terms. • Like terms: terms with the same variable raised to the same power
