Answer:


\large\boxed{8x+28}

Explanation:

In this question, we're solving the expression by combining like terms and getting it to its simplest form.

The expression we are solving is:


4(x+5)+4x+8

Solve:


4(x+5)+4x+8\\\\\text{Use the distributive property to distribute the 4 to the components}\\\text{in the parenthesis}\\\\4x+20+4x+8\\\\\text{Now, we combine like terms}\\\\8x+20+8\\\\\boxed{8x+28}

When you're done solving, you should get 8x + 28.

8x + 28 would be your final answer.

I hope this helped you out.

Good luck on your academics.

Have a fantastic day!

To solve the equation 4(x + 5) + 4x + 8 you must first distribute the 4 to the numbers inside the parentheses, which would be x and 5...

(4*x) + (4*5) + 4x + 8

4x + 20 + 4x + 8

Now you must combine like terms. Like terms are numbers that have matching variables OR are numbers with out variables. In this case the like terms are 4x and 4x; like terms are also 20 and 8:

4x + 4x = 8x

20 + 8 = 28

8x + 28

^^^This can not be "solved" because it is an expression (without and equal sign), but it can be simplified to what is shown above

Hope this helped!
