Distributive Property:

The distributive property lets you multiply a sum by multiplying each addend separately and then add the products.

In numerical form we have:

[tex] a(b+c) =a*b +a*c [/tex]

Now let us use this property for our question:

(-2.5)(3-8y)

Here we have ,

a=(-2.5) , b=3 and c=-8y

So using distributive property here,

[tex] (-2.5)(3-8y) =(-2.5)*(3) +(-2.5)*(-8y) [/tex]

=-7.5 +20y

So answer is -7.5 +20y
