Heyo! I could help you, but I have a question!

Explanation:

Is this a multiple choice question, or would you like me to solve it on my own?

to solve this, distribute the 2 amongst 3j+4+9j

2(3j)+2(4)+2(9j)

this would end up being 6j+8+18j, which could be a possible solution to the equation, but it’s not reduced

reduced it by combining like terms to get 24j+8

or, you can make the equation even simpler by combining like terms in the parentheses in the initial 2(3j+4+9j)

that would end up being 2(12j+4)

so, i would say the two equations would be 2(12j+4) and 24j+8

hope this helped!!
