Hey there!

“Simplify 2(7n + 5m – 3m)”

2(7n + 5m – 3m)

FIRST you have to DISTRIBUTE

2(7n) + 2(5m) + 2(–3m)

2(7n) = 14n

2(5m) = 10m

2(–3m) = –6m

14n + 10m – 6m

SECOND COMBINE your LIKE TERMS

(14n) + (10m – 6m)

(10m – 6m) = 4m ⬅️ FRONT number

(14n) = 14n ⬅️ BACK number

Answer: 4m + 14n ☑️

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!
