Question: 2{4x - 3(x + 5) + 10} + 3(x - 2)
Steps
1. Expand 4x - 3(x + 5) + 10 = x - 5
= 2(x - 5) + 3(x - 2)
2. Expand 2(x - 5) = 2x - 10
= 2x - 10 + 3(x - 2)
3. Expand 3(x - 2) = 3x - 6
= 2x - 10 + 3x - 6
4. Then, simplify:
Add 2x + 3x = 5x
Add -10 - 6 = -16
5. Plug it in:
5x - 16 <-------------- Answer
Hope this helped!!!!
