Answer:

C. 19a + 11b

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribute into the parentheses.

3(5a + b) + 4(a + 2b)

= 15a + 3b + 4a + 8b

Add like terms.

15a + 3b + 4a + 8b

19a + 3b + 8b

= 19a + 11b

Hope that helps.

Hey there!

“Simplify 3(5a + b) + 4(a + 2b)”

FIRST you have to DISTRIBUTE

3(5a + b) + 4(a + 2b)

3(5a) + 3(b) + 4(a) + 4(2b)

3(5a) = 15a

3(b) = 3b

4(a) = 4a

4(2b) = 8b

“15a + 3b + 4a + 8b”

SECOND: COMBINE your LIKE TERMS

(3b + 8b) + (15a + 4a)

(3b + 8b) = 11b ⬅️ BACK number

(15a + 4a) = 19a ⬅️ FRONT number

ALL OF YOUR TERMS/NUMBERS ARE POSITIVE SO WE DON’T HAVE TO FIX ANYTHING

Answer: C. 19a + 11b ☑️

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!
