Answer 1

Answer:

2(2x + 1)

Explanation:

Combine like terms and 3x and x are like terms

3x is just:

x + x + x and you add one more x so its

x + x + x + x

since there are 4, it is 4x.

2 is a number without any modifiers so it stays alone since it is the only one like itself.

4x +2

both number can be divided by 2 so divide by 2 and put it on the outside of parenthesizes and divide both number by 2.

2(2x + 1)

then your done and it is simplified.
