Distributive Property. (Simplify) 17. 3(x-2)= 18. -2(4x+9)= 19 (1)/(2)(10x-13)= -(2)/(3)(x-9)=

Let's simplify each expression using the **distributive property**, which states that \( a(b + c) = ab + ac \).---### 17. \( 3(x - 2) \)Distribute to both terms inside the parentheses: **Answer:** ---### 18. \( -2(4x + 9) \)Distribute to both terms inside the parentheses: **Answer:** ---### 19. \( \frac{1}{2}(10x - 13) \)Distribute to both terms inside the parentheses: **Answer:** ---### 20. \( -\frac{2}{3}(x - 9) \)Distribute to both terms inside the parentheses: **Answer:** --- ### Final Answers:17. 18. 19. 20.
