\huge\textsf{Hey there!}


\large\text{2(3x + 4y + x)}


\large\textsf{DISTRIBUTE 2 WITHIN the PARENTHESES}


\large\text{2(3x) + 2(4y) + 2(x)}


\large\text{2(3x) = \boxed{\bf 6x }}


\large\text{6x + 2(4y) + 2(x)}


\large\text{2(4y) = \boxed{\bf 8y}}


\large\text{6x + 8y + 2(x)}


\large\text{2(x) = \boxed{\bf 2x}}


\large\text{6x + 8y + 2x}


\large\textsf{COMBINE the LIKE TERMS}


\large\text{(6x + 2x) + (8y)}


\large\text{6x + 2x = \boxed{\bf 8x}}


\large\text{8x + 8y}


\boxed{\boxed{\large\text{Answer: \huge \bf 8x + 8y}}}\huge\checkmark
