We use the distributive property:
18x - 30
+
6x - 10
+
-24x +40

Simplifying, we get 0.

- - Let's solve:

✦ You asked: 6(3x - 5) + 2(3x - 5) - 8(3x - 5)


Solve:

✦ First apply the distributive property.



(6)(3x)+(6)(-5)+(2)(3x)+(2)(-5)+(-8)(3x)+(-8)(-5)



✦ Now once again:



=18x+-30+6x+-10+-24x+40



✦ Lastly combine your like terms:



=18x+-30+6x+-10+-24x+40




(18x+6x+-24x)+(-30+-10+40)


✦ Solve for that and you get


0


✦ Final answer: 0


✦Hope this helps!✦
