Answer:
A simplified/equivalent expression your equation would be - 8x + 10
Step-by-step explanation:
6(2x + 3) - 4(5x + 2)
Distribute:
= (6)(2x) + (6)(3) + (- 4)(5x) + (- 4)(2)
= 12x + 18 + - 20x + - 8
Combine Like Terms:
= 12x + 18 + - 20x + - 8
= (12x + - 20x) + (18 + - 8)
= - 8x + 10
Hope this helps!
