• You’ve harassed a dozen people to say only 53+514

    Nope! I’ve said a(b+c)=(ab+ac) is correct.

    to the point you think 2(3+5)2 isn’t 2*82

    You mean I know that, because it disobeys The Distributive Law 🙄 The expression you’re looking for is 2x(3+5)², which is indeed not subject to Distribution, since the 2 is not next to the brackets.

    If you’d stuck to one dogmatic answer

    Instead I’ve stuck to one actual law of Maths, a(b+c)=(ab+ac).

    But you’ve concisely proven

    The Distributive Law, including c=0 🙄 Not sure why you would think c=0 is somehow an exception from a law

    the harassment is the point

    No, the rules of Maths is the point

    when you can’t do algebra right

    Says person who thinks c=0 is somehow an exception that isn’t allowed,🙄but can’t cite any textbook which says that

      Dude you’re not even hitting the right reply buttons anymore. Is that what you do when you’re drunk? It’d explain leading with ‘nope! I’ve said exactly what you accused me of.’

      You keep pretending distribution is different from multiplication:

      The context is Maths, you have to obey the rules of Maths. a(b+c)=(ab+ac), 5(8-5)=(5x8-5x5).

      That’s not Multiplication, it’s Distribution, a(b+c)=(ab+ac), a(b)=(axb).

      And then posting images that explicitly say the contents of the brackets should be multiplied. Or that they can be simplified first. I am not playing dueling-sources with you, because your own sources call bullshit on what you keep hassling strangers about.

        Yes I am

        Is that what you do when you’re drunk?

        Is that why you think I’m hitting the wrong buttons?

        It’d explain leading with ‘nope! I’ve said exactly what you accused me of.’

        I have no idea what you’re talking about. Maybe stop drinking

        You keep pretending distribution is different from multiplication

        No pretending - is is different - it’s why you get different answers to 8/2(1+3) (Distribution) and 8/2x(1+3) (Multiplication) 😂

        B 8/2(1+3)=8/(2+6)=8/8

        E

        DM 8/8=1

        AS

        B 8/2x(1+3)=8/2x4

        E

        DM 8/2x4=4x4=16

        AS

        That’s not Multiplication, it’s Distribution, a(b+c)=(ab+ac), a(b)=(axb).

        That’s right.

        And then posting images that explicitly say the contents of the brackets should be multiplied

        The “contents OF THE BRACKETS”, done in the BRACKETS step , not the MULTIPLICATION step - there you go quoting proof that I’m correct! 😂

        Or that they can be simplified first.

        That’s right, you can simplify then DISTRIBUTE, both part of the BRACKETS step, and your point is?

        B 8/2(1+3)=8/2(4)=8/(2x4)=8/8

        E

        DM 8/8=1 <== same answer

        AS

        I am not playing dueling-sources with you

        No, because you haven’t got any 😂

        your own sources call bullshit on what you keep hassling strangers about

        says person failing to give a single example of that EVER happenning 😂

        I’ll take that as an admission of being wrong then. Thanks for playing
