Answer:
Distributive Property
Reasoning:
Distributive Property states: a(b+c) = ab+ac
We initially have 4(2+c)+5.
- 4 distributes into the 2 and c.
4•2+4•c+5
- Following PEMDAS, simply the expression
8+4c+5
- Using the Commutative Property, we can rewrite the expression:
- 4c+13
So, the Distributive property is used and the Commutative Property is used after it.
