Q. Distribute to create an equivalent expression with the fewest symbols possible.3(7x+1)=
Apply distributive property: Apply the distributive property to the expression 3(7x+1).The distributive property states that a(b+c)=ab+ac. Therefore, we need to multiply each term inside the parentheses by 3.3(7x+1)=3×7x+3×1
Perform multiplication: Perform the multiplication for each term.3×7x=21x3×1=3So, the expression becomes 21x+3.
Write simplified expression: Combine the results to write the simplified expression.The simplified expression is 21x+3.
