What's in the Vault?

As we continue to build a conceptual understanding for algebraic expressions and how to compute with them, we added the notion of a vault, and what would be in the vault. This encourages students to be able to use the distributive property in a meaningful context, and understand why each of the terms are being multiplied by a given constant.
