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!
