Answer:
X-19
Step-by-step explanation:
First you need to distribute the three into the numbers in the parenthesis,
(3 * x) + (3 * -5) - (2x + 4)
That then turns into,
3x - 15 - (2x + 4)
but we aren't done distributing yet, because the second set of parenthesis has a negative sign in front of it we also have to distribute that. (this is because the negative sign is really just -1)
3x - 15 + (-1 * 2x) + (-1 * 4)
that turns into,
3x - 15 - 2x -4
from here all we have to do is add like terms,
(3x - 2x) + (-15 + -4)
and that leaves us with: 1x -19 or x-19
Hope that helped :))
