Expand the expression using the distributive property: 4(x - 3)
Correct: C
The distributive property states that a(b + c) = ab + ac. In this case, 'a' is 4, 'b' is x, and 'c' is -3.
Multiply 4 by x: 4 * x = 4x
Multiply 4 by -3: 4 * (-3) = -12
Combine the results: 4x - 12
So, the expanded expression is 4x - 12.
