Hey there!


5(4r + 3) - 2x

DISTRIBUTE 5 WITHIN the PARENTHESES

= 5(4r) + 5(3) - 2x

= 20r + 15 - 2x


COMBINE the LIKE TERMS (if they are any)

Seems like you don’t have any like terms so we could leave it as it is!

= 20r + 15 - 2x

= 20r - 2x + 15


Therefore, the answer should be:

20r - 2x + 15


Good luck on your assignment & enjoy your day!
