Isaac applied the steps below to find the product of (4.2)(-5.4). Step 1: (4.2)-5.4) = (-5.4)(4.2)
Step 2:
= (-5.4)(4) + (-5.4)(0.2)
Step 3:
= (-21.6) + (-1.08)
Step 4:
= -22.68
Which step shows where Isaac applied the distributive property?
Step 1
Step 2
Step 3
Step 4

Hey There!!

The answer to this is Step 2: Distributive Property: a(b + 3) = ab + ac

Isaac's Steps are outlined below:

Step 1: (4.2) (-54) = (-54) (4.2)

Step 2: = (-5.4) (4) + (-5.4) (0.2)

Step 3: = (-21.6) + (-1.08)

Step 4: = 22.68

We observe that in Step 2:

(-5.4) (4.2) = (-5.4) (4 × 0.2) = (-5.4) (4) + (-5.4) (0.2)

Therefore, Isaac applied the distributive property in Step 2.
