    Use the distributive property to expand the expression: 4(y + 5x)

    Given Expression:
    4(y + 5x)
    Since, the given expression is in the form of a(b+ c) we can apply Distributive Law which yields ab+ ac as a result.
    Similarly, By applying the Distributive Law to 4(y + 5x):
    4(y + 5x)
    left parenthesis 4 cross times y right parenthesis plus left parenthesis 4 cross times 5 x right parenthesis
    = 4y + 20x.
    Hence, the expression 4(y + 5x) becomes 4y + 20x after it's expansion.
