Question

which of the following is equivalent to 5(2x + 3)? 10x + 15 10x + 3 52x + 53 7x + 10

Explanation:

Step1: Apply distributive property

$5(2x + 3)=5\times2x+5\times3$

Step2: Calculate multiplications

$5\times2x = 10x$ and $5\times3=15$, so $5\times2x+5\times3 = 10x + 15$

Answer:

$10x + 15$
