Answer:

6(3x - 5) + 2(3x - 5) - 8(3x - 5) = 0

Explanation:

The expression is,

→ 6(3x - 5) + 2(3x - 5) - 8(3x - 5)

Now we have to,

→ Simplify the given expression.

Let's simplify the expression,

→ 6(3x - 5) + 2(3x - 5) - 8(3x - 5)

Applying Distributive property:

→ 6(3x) - 6(5) + 2(3x) - 2(5) - 8(3x) - 8(-5)

→ 18x - 30 + 6x - 10 - 24x + 40

Rearranging the expression:

→ 18x + 6x - 24x - 30 - 10 + 40

→ (18 + 6 - 24)x - (30 - 10 + 40)

→ 0x - 0

0 => {final answer}

Therefore, the answer is 0.

Explanation:

To simplify you need to distribute then add like terms.

6(3x-5) + 2(3x-5) - 8(3x-5)

18x - 30 + 6x - 10 - 24x + 40

0x + 0
