Expand and simplify 2(x+7) + 3(x+1)

Let's simplify step-by-step.

2(x+7)+3(x+1)

Distribute:

=(2)(x)+(2)(7)+(3)(x)+(3)(1)

=2x+14+3x+3

Combine Like Terms:

=2x+14+3x+3

=(2x+3x)+(14+3)

=5x+17

your answer is 5x+17

there are many solutions.

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

4x+6=4x^2+10x−4

step 2: subtract 4x^2+10x-4 from both sides.

4x+6−(4x^2+10x−4)=4x^2+10x−4−(4x^2+10x−4)

−4x^2−6x+10=0

step 3: factor left side of equation.

−2(2x+5)(x−1)=0

step 4: set factors equal to 0.

x=-5/2 or x=1
