To simplify the expression (3(2x – 1) + 5), follow these steps:
1. Distribute the 3:
[
3 times 2x = 6x
]
[
3 times -1 = -3
]
So, we have:
[
6x – 3 + 5
]
2. Combine like terms:
(-3 + 5 = 2). Therefore, the expression simplifies to:
[
6x + 2
]
Thus, the simplified expression is (6x + 2). Great job on working through this! If you need further assistance, check out the extended services page.
