Answer:
50x
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets start!
5(3x + 7) = 20 – 2(x + 1)
So as we should know we have 'PEMDAS' standing for parenthesis, exponents, multiplication, division, and subtraction. You do math (any math) in the order of PEMDAS.
So lets start out with the parenthesis:
(3x +7) is 10x and (x +1) is 1x
now lets multiply:
So now we have that the equation is
5 · 10x · 1x
5 · 10x is 50x and 50 · 1x is 50x
Therefore our answer is 50x.
Hope this helped have a fantastic day! (✿◡‿◡)
