You would first do distribution
5(x+4) would give you 5x+20 now that you have that combine like terms giving you 5x+15 because 20-5 or -5+20 is equal to 15

A) distribute the 5 to the x and 4 in parenthesis. this gives you (-5 + 5x + 20)

b) combine -5 and 20, the two constants. this gives you (5x + 15)

Scilla [17]

Divide 240 by 45 you would get 5 and 1/3, multiply 5 and one third by 60 and it would result in 320. Leaving you with D.

D is the correct answer

Add (7x6 + 10x2 − 10) + (3x6 − 6x3 + 4)

Andreas93 [3]

(7x⁶ + 10x² - 10) + (3x⁶ - 6x³ + 4)

Put everything into order :)

7x⁶ + 3x⁶ - 6x³ + 10x² - 10 + 4
Add like terms.

(7x⁶ + 3x⁶) - 6x³ + 10x² + (-10 + 4)
Simplify.

10x⁶ - 6x³ + 10x² - 6
