Answer:

                                         Step-by-step explanation:

1.) Apply the distributive law

                5x + 5 * 2

2.) Multiply the numbers

       5 * 2 = 10 is equivalent to 5x + 10

3.) Group like terms

4.) Add/subtract the numbers

                  -3 + 10 = 7 is equivalent to 5x + 7
