Answer:


\huge\boxed{\sf{4x+12}}

Explanation:

Hello.

The Distributive Property states that

a(b+c)=ab+ac

Where

a, b, and c can be variables or constants.

Now, let's simplify the expression:

4(x+3)

  • Distribute 4 by multiplying it times x and 3

4 times x = 4x

4 times 3 = 12

Add the products:

4x+12

I hope it helps & have an outstanding day.
