Question

how to solve 2x(x+3)=2x^2+15

Answer 1

Answer: x = 5/2 = 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression

2x (x + 3) = 2x² + 15

Expand parentheses and apply the distributive property

2x · x + 2x · 3 = 2x² + 15

2x² + 6x = 2x² + 15

Subtract 2x² on both sides

2x² + 6x - 2x² = 2x² + 15 - 2x²

6x = 15

Divide 6 on both sides

6x / 6 = 15 / 6

x = 15/6

$\boxed{x=\frac{5}{2} }$

Hope this helps!! :)

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

2x^2 + 6x = 2x^2 + 15

2x^2-2x^2+6x=15

6x = 15

x= 5/2 when simplified
