Question: 2{4x - 3(x + 5) + 10} + 3(x - 2)

Steps

1. Expand 4x - 3(x + 5) + 10 = x - 5

= 2(x - 5) + 3(x - 2)

2. Expand 2(x - 5) = 2x - 10

= 2x - 10 + 3(x - 2)

3. Expand 3(x - 2) = 3x - 6

= 2x - 10 + 3x - 6

4. Then, simplify:

Add 2x + 3x = 5x

Add -10 - 6 = -16

5. Plug it in:

5x - 16 <-------------- Answer


Hope this helped!!!!
