Expand the following a. 2 (x+3) b. 5 (2x-4) c. 4 (2x+1) d. 6 (x-4y) !

So you multiply the number in front (left) of the bracket with the values inside the brackets so

a. it's 2 multiply x plus 2 multiply 3 which gets you 2x + 6

b. 5 multiply 2x and 5 multiply - 4 = 10x - 20

c. 4 multiply 2x and 4 multiply 1 = 8x + 4

d. 6 multiply x and 6 multiply - 4y = 6x - 24y

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+6

10x-20

8x+4

6x-24y
