$2 (x + 3)$ $2(x+3)$

Distribute the $2$ $2$

$2 \times x + 2 \times 3$ $2 xx x + 2 xx 3$

$2 x + 6$ $2x + 6$

Answer 2 · 2018-03-22T15:01:56

$2 x + 6$ $2x+6$

Explanation:

$multiply each term in the parenthesis by the 2$ $"multiply each term in the parenthesis by the 2"$

$\Rightarrow 2 (x + 3)$ $rArrcolor(red)(2)(x+3)$

$= (2 \times x) + (2 \times 3)$ $=(color(red)(2)xx x)+(color(red)(2)xx3)$

$= 2 x + 6$ $=2x+6$
