ANSWER

The equivalent expression is


{q}^(2) + 7q + 2

Step-by-step explanation

The given expression is:


5 {q}^(2) - (2)/(3) (6 {q}^(2) -6 q - 3) + 3q

Expand the parenthesis;


5 {q}^(2) - 4 {q}^(2) + 4q + 2 + 3q

Regroup similar terms


5 {q}^(2) - 4 {q}^(2) + 4q + 3q + 2

Combine similar terms;


{q}^(2) + 7q + 2
