What is the answer to this question

2x + x + x + 2y x 3y x y

2 x (3 y^3 + 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the following:

2 x + x + x + 2*3 y y x y

2 y*3 y = 2 y^2*3:

2 x + x + x + 2*3 y^2 x y

2*3 = 6:

2 x + x + x + 6 y^2 x y

6 y^2 x y = 6 y^ (2 + 1) x:

2 x + x + x + 6 y^ (2 + 1) x

2 + 1 = 3:

2 x + x + x + 6 y^3 x

Grouping like terms, 2 x + x + x + 6 y^3 x = 6 x y^3 + (2 x + x + x):

6 x y^3 + (2 x + x + x)

2 x + x + x = 4 x:

6 x y^3 + 4 x

Factor 2 x out of 6 x y^3 + 4 x:

Answer: 2 x (3 y^3 + 2)
