Answer 1

1st: 3m + 4

2nd: 5m + 4

3rd: 3m + 4

Explanation:

Lets simplify each expression so we can match them.

`2(m+3)+m-2`

Use the distributive property, distribute 2

`2m+6+m-2`

Add m terms

`3m+6-2`

Subtract 6 and 2

`3m+4`

Now for our next expression.

`5(m+1)-1`

Distribute 5

`5m+5-1`

Subtract 4 and 1

`5m+4`

Now for the final expression

`m+m+m+1+3`

Add m terms

`3m+1+3`

Add 1 and 3

`3m+4`
