Hey there!

Distribute
\bf{5} into all of your terms! (MULTIPLY it to all your given terms in other words!)


\bf{5(3x +4y-2)}\\ \bf{5(3x) +5(4y) +5(-2)}\\ \bf{5(3x)=15x}\\ \bf{5(4y)=20y}\\ \bf{5(-2)=-10}}\\ \\ \boxed{\bf{Answer: 15x +20y-10}}\checkmark

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!
