Question

5(3x+2)-2(4x-1)
Can someone help me by showing step by step on what to do please?

Answer 1

To solve this we need to use this formula:

`a(b + c) = ab + ac`

`5(3x + 2) - 2(4x - 1) = 15x + 10 - 8x + 2 = \\ = 7x + 12`

Answer 2

7x + 12

Explanation:

15x + 10 - 8x + 2

i'm pretty sure that's it?
