Question

What is the sum of this question

Answer 1

C. 7x + 45

Explanation:

To start answering this question, let's first distribute the 6 * ( x + 7 ) so that we can add like terms to simplify.

So let's multiply the 6 out to the ( x + 7 ) to get ( 6x + 42 ).

Now the complete expression reads: 6x + 42 + ( x + 3 )

With this, we can add all the like terms( 6x and x, and 42 and 3) together.

So we end up with 6x + x + 42 + 3 = 7x + 45

So the correct answer is C. 7x + 45
