8(x-3) = x + 25
8x -24 = x + 25
7x = 49
x = 7

X= the numbers
8(x-3)=x+25
distribute
8x-24=x+25
minus x both sides
7x-24=25
add 24 both sides
7x=49
divide both sides by 7
x=7

the numbers is 7

10x^3(8x^3+3x)

([10x^3 x 8x^3]+ [10x^3 x 3x])

80x^6+ 30x^4

•this is as simplified as it gets; it isn’t possible to add or subtract numbers with different exponents.
