Which is a simplified form of the expression 2(2j + 3) – 3j?
A. -j + 3
B. 2j + 3
C. j + 6
D. -j + 6

2(2j + 3) - 3j        First distribute/multiply 2 into (2j + 3)

(2)2j + (2)3 - 3j

4j + 6 - 3j           Now combine like terms (terms that have the same variable and power/exponent), which are only 4j and -3j because they have the same variable "j" and power/exponent of 1

j + 6           Your answer is C

C) j+6

Step-by-step explanation:

2(2j+3)-3j

4j+6-3j

4j-3j+6

j+6

step-by-step explanation:

always plug in x. in this case, x equals 4.

i'm going to first solve 4(2+3x)

1) 4(2+3(4)) use pemdas to solve.

i'm going to multiply whats in the parenthesis first, so 3 times 4=12.

2)4 (2+12) i'm then going to multiply 4 by both numbers in the parenthesis (because multiplying comes before adding)

4 times 2= 8.   4 times 12= 48

4) (8+48)= 56 (answer)

i'm then going to solve 8+12x and plug in 4 for x.

1) 8 +12(4)

multiplying comes before adding, so i'm gonna multiply 12 and 4.

12 times 4= 48.

2) 8+48=56

both equal the same!

50*10 is greater

step-by-step explanation:

if you add the zero from 10 to 50, it will give you a bigger number.
