Question

Simplify 2(4x-3)-3(5-x)

Answer 1

Answer:

11x - 21

Step-by-step explanation:

2(4x - 3) - 3(5 - x)     use the distributive property a(b + c) = ab + ac

= (2)(4x) + (2)(-3) + (-3)(5) + (-3)(-x)

= 8x - 6 - 15 + 3x           combine like terms

= (8x + 3x) + (-6 - 15)

= 11x - 21

Answer 2

Answer:

11x - 21

Step-by-step explanation:

2(4x-3)-3(5-x)

Distributive property

= 8x - 6 - 15 + 3x

Combine like terms

= 11x - 21
