the answer above me is correct!

Answer 2

`\displaystyle 27x-(89)/(6)`

Explanation:

Given:

5/2(6x - 7) + 4/3(2 + 9x)

Rewrite:

`\displaystyle (5)/(2) (6x-7)+(4)/(3) (2+9x)`

Distribute by multiplying:

`\displaystyle 15x-(35)/(2) +(4)/(3) (2+9x)`

Distribute by multiplying again:

`\displaystyle 15x-(35)/(2) +(8)/(3) +12x`

Combine like terms:

`\displaystyle 27x-(89)/(6)`

The given expression, simplified, is;

`\displaystyle 27x-(89)/(6)`
