Answer 1

Answer:

A) 8x+40

Step-by-step explanation:

$2(x + 5) + 6(x + 5) =$

$2x + 10 + 6x + 30 =$

$8x + 40$

Answer 2

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Because if you add the variables that are the same it would be 2+6=8 & 5+5=10. Now you have to put it in an equivalent equation which would be 8(x+10).
