Use the distributive property to simplify the expression. Distribution property is
A(B+C)=(A*B)+(A*C) apply the property into the given equation…
5 + 3(2x + 4) + 6
5+6x+12+6 the expression looks like option" d"(5 + 6x + 12 + 6) is correct,
combine like terms to simplify the expression: 5 + 3(2x + 4) + 6.
After simplifying the expression 5+6x+12+6=6x+23 option " b" is correct.
