Answer:
10x + 7
Step-by-step explanation:
3(2x + 5) added to 2(2x - 4) is the same as 3(2x +5) + 2(2x - 4)
Remember PEMDAS
P – Parentheses (distribution)
E – Exponents
M – Multiplication
/D – Division (whichever comes first from left to right)
A – Addition
/S – Subtraction (whichever comes first from left to right)
First, we will distribute the left side.
3(2x + 5)
3 * 2x = 6x
3 * 5 = 15
Add them together to get:
6x + 15
6x + 15 + 2(2x - 4)
We must now distribute the right side.
2 * 2x = 4x
2 * -4 = -8
Add them together to get:
4x -8
We now have:
6x + 15 + 4x - 8
<u>Let's combine like terms.</u>
6x and 4x are like terms.
Combine: 6x + 4x = 10x
15 and -8 are like terms.
15 - 8 = 7
Now we have 10x + 7
Since 10 and 7 don't have any GCF, we have our answer.
10x + 7
