By some arrangement, you get $8x + 7$

$2x - (3-4x) + 2(x+5)$

$=2x - 3 + 4x + 2x +10$

$=2x + 4x + 2x -3 + 10$

$=8x + 7$

Your answer is $8x + 7$

$8x+7$

$2x−(3−4x)+2(x+5)$

Distribute parentheses

$-(3)-(-4x)= -3+4$

So

$2x-3+4x+2(x+5)$

Distribute parentheses again

$2*x+2*5 =2x+10$

So

$2x-3+4x+2x+10$

Simplify

$8x+7$
