Can you solve this? Please ( 15+ points)

Answer 1

`24x+112`

Explanation:

First of all we will start with the brackets inside the equation,

1.
`2[16+40+12x]`

Now we can multiply 2 by all the values inside the parentheses

2.
`32+80+24x`

I just wanted to confirm that the big X is a variable?

Fact: Did you know that there are about 4 types of parenthese: ( ) - round brackets, [ ] - square brackets, { } - curly brackets, and < > - angle bracket.

Answer 2

112+24x

Explanation:

2(16+(10*4)+(x*12))

solve the inner bracket

2(16+40+12x)

solve this bracket

2(56+12x)

solve this now

112+24x
