Answer:

5(2x - 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

2(x - 6) + 4(2x + 1) + 3 ← distribute both parenthesis

= 2x - 12 + 8x + 4 + 3 ← collect like terms

= (2x + 8x) + (- 12 + 4 + 3)

= 10x + (- 5)

= 10x - 5 ← factor out 5 from each term

= 5(2x - 1) ← in factored form

aleksklad [387]

Answer:

first is -3, second number is 0

Step-by-step explanation:

you have two equations x+3=y and 4*x+12=5*y

Use the first one and write y in terms of x in the second equation:

4*x+12=5*(x+3)

4*x+12=5*x+15

12=5*x-4*x+15

12=x+15
