Yes you can! Say you have 5(2 + x) + 3x. The answer would be 10+8x because when you use the distributive property you will end up getting 5*2 5*x and once you multiply, it's obvious 5 times 2 is 10 and 5 times x will equal 5x. Then you add 5x and 3x and get 8x. So, the simplified expression here is 10+8x. When you have this as an answer it's proving your answer right. You can without using the distributive property. We can have 10+5x+3x and it will be your simplified expression. It's the same thing with equations too.
L=25
If the length is 25 yards then you use 50 yards of fencing for the length, this leaves ten yards for each width of fencing each.
10 yards is 15 yards less than 25 yards showing that this is the correct answer.
Answer:
13-13x
Step-by-step explanation:
3*2=6
(6-5x+6) + (9-8x-8)
Combine Like Terms
(12-5x) + (1-8x)
Put x on one side and numbers on the other.
(12+1) + (-5x+ (-8x))
13-13x
