So if you distribute 4 in the first parentheses, you get 12x+20y+8z.

Then you distribute 3 in the second parentheses. You'll get 3x-3z. That all equals 12x+20y+8z+3x-3z.

Now you have to start combining numbers with the same variable. Start with x. 12x+3x is 15x.

y has no other common variable, it's left alone.

8z-3z is 5z

All together now with the numbers in simpler form, the equation is 15x+20y+5z

Jenna's would be the right answer because when you distribute 5 in her answer you get 15x+20y+5z
