Answer: 3x + 15

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to use the distributive property, you simply multiply the number on the outside by both the number inside the parenthesis

So, in this case, we would multiply 3 by X and 3 by 5

3 times x = 3x

3 times 5 =15

Your new equation is then made by adding these two together

3x+15

Answer 3x + 15
