Good evening

Answer:

  1. 18x + 15
  2. 3(6x + 5)

Explanation:

Unfortunately you didn’t provide the expressions to chose from ,however we can get other expressions From this one like this:

5(4x+3) - 2x = 20x + 15 - 2x

= (20x - 2x) + 15

= 18x + 15

we can also write 18x + 15 = 3×(6x) + 3×(5x) = 3(6x + 5)

then

these two expressions :

  • 18x + 15
  • 3(6x + 5)

are equivalent to 5(4x+3) - 2x
