Problem

Simplify the expression ( 2x + 3 ) ( 1 ) using the multiplicative identity property.

2

Step

Given expression

( 2x + 3 ) ( 1 )

3

Step

Symbolically, Multiplicative identity Property can be expressed as

a × 1 = a, Where a is any number.

4

Hint

Recognize that multiplying any expression by 1 does not change the expression.

5

Step

According to the multiplicative identity property

( 2x + 3 ) ( 1 ) simplifies to 2x + 3

6

Solution

So, the final simplified expression is 2x + 3.

Choice-A

This option represents the expression 2x - 3. It’s not the result of applying the multiplicative identity property to the given expression \$(2x + 3) \times 1\$

Wrong 2x - 3

9

Choice-B

This option doesn’t correspond to the given expression. It’s 3x + 2, which is unrelated to the multiplication by 1

Wrong 3x + 2

10

Choice-C

This option represents 3x - 2, which is not the result of applying the multiplicative identity property to the given expression

Wrong 3x - 2

11

Choice-D

This option correctly represents the simplified expression. Applying the multiplicative identity property, we have \$(2x + 3) \times 1 = 2x + 3\$

Correct 2x + 3
