Explanation:

I am going to assume that the equivalent expression is fully simplified.

To simplify this expression, we use the distributive method.

Using this method we get:

4·(5x+3y) = 4·5x+4·3y

Now that we have the terms seperated, simplify each of them:

4·5x + 4·3y = 20x + 12y

Our expression is now fully simplified so our answer is:

20x + 12y
