about




My name's Jennifer, but I'm more commonly known as Jen or Sporkster. I love lots of things/people including God; volleyball and soccer, my two favorite sports; and cheese. I also love Pi, but that's a story for another day.

I've been answering questions on Advicenators for over three years now, so I'm pretty experienced with it. I love answering questions and helping you out anyway I can, so if you've got a question, just ask me!

Ask me about: Christianity, athletics, physical fitness, love-life, relationships, friendships, HTML queries, book suggestions, music suggestions, musical theory, history, English (or Spanish) grammar, Paint Shop Pro 8, skin problems, sports injuries, "punk" fashion, nutrition, etc.

Q: On my homework the question is:
EXPAND 5(a-3)
how would I do this?

A: Just giving you a few other multiplicative properties to help you out:

Distributive Property of Multiplication --

a(b + c) = ab + ac

Ex. 4(7 + 11) = 4(7) + 4(11) = 72

Commutative Property of Multiplication --

ab = ba

Ex. 5(4) = 4(5) = 20

Associative Property of Multiplication --

a(bc) = (ab)c

Ex. 2(4 x 5) = (2 x 4)5 = 40

Identity Property of Multiplication --

1a = a

Ex. 1(6) = 6

Multiplicative Inverse Property --

1/a x a/1 = 1

Ex. 1/7 x 7/1 = 1

I hope this information can help you on other math homework you may have--just make a reference to this anytime you need it.
