Question

2(x + 14) + (2x - 14)=

Answer 1

Answer:4x-6

Step-by-step explanation: first you break up the problem

2(x+4) you use the distributive property so it is 2 times x which is 2x. The. You do 2 times 4( it is positive because of the plus sign) which is 8

2x•8 keep it for later

Then 2x-14 is already dived for you

Put them together

2x+8+2x-14

Out the like numbers togethe

2x+2x=4x

Then do the next like numbers

8-14=-6

Finally put them together

4x-6

Answer 2

4x+14

Explanation:

Distribute the 2 in 2(x+14) with the result, (2x+28), then combine like terms.

(2x+28) + (2x-14)

2x+2x=4x, 28-14= 14

In the end, you should get 4x+14
