Question

4x -3Expand and simplify 2(x+7) + 3(x+ 1)

Answer 1

Explanation:

Expanding and simplifying 2(x + 7) + 3(x + 1):

2(x + 7) = 2x + 14

3(x + 1) = 3x + 3

Adding the two expressions:

2x + 14 + 3x + 3 = 5x + 17

So 2(x + 7) + 3(x + 1) = 5x + 17.

Answer 2

`\sf2(x + 7) + 3(x + 1) \\ \sf2x + 14 + 3x + 3 \\ \sf5x + 17`
