Explanation Forms of the Distributive Axiom: The Distributive Axiom distributes multiplication over addition: a ( b + c ) = a ⋅ b + a ⋅ c a ⋅ b + a ⋅ c = a ( b + c ) The Distributive Axiom distributes multiplication over subtraction: a ( b − c ) = a ⋅ b − a ⋅ c a ⋅ b − a ⋅ c = a ( b − c ) Calculation: Given: 2 ( x + 1 ) + 3 ( x + 2 ) Now we have to simplify by combining similar terms. By expanding the two brackets, we have to multiply every element of them by the number standing before the brackets. Apply the distributive law : a ( b + c ) = a b + a c
