Question

Simplify to create an equivalent expression

(4+2k)•6+3k=

Answer 1

24+15k=

Step-by-step explanation:

First we multiply the 6 to the numbers in the parentheses, so 4x6=24, and 2x6=12, making the expression look like this: 24+12k+3k=

Then we combine like terms, which would be the number that are attached to 'k'. So that makes the expression look like this: 24+15k=

I'm not sure what else you're suppose to do to create a new expression since there's nothing on the other side of the equal sign, but that's as much as the expression will simplify.
