To simplify, you must distribute the 2 into the 5x and -4 by multiplying 2 with 5x and 2 with -4.
<span>2(5x – 4) + 3x
2 x 5x = 10x
2 x -4 = -8
You will get 10x - 8 + 3x
Now you must combine like terms or add like terms. In this case we must add 10x and 3x
10x + 3x = 13x
Finally the answer would be 13x - 8</span>

Answer: 34
Step-by-step explanation: the ratio is 3:2 we know that there are 51 orange sweets but we don’t know how many are yellow so the current ratio is 51:x we need to find x so if we divide 3 by 51 the answer is 17 so we need to multiply 17 by 2 which is 34 so x is equaled to 34 the final ratio is 51:34
hope it helped :)
