To simplify the expression, we distribute the coefficients:
12(x+4) = 12x + 48
14(4x-2) = 56x - 28
Now, we combine the like terms:
12x + 48 + 56x - 28
Add the coefficients of the x terms:
12x + 56x = 68x
Combine the constants terms:
48 - 28 = 20
So the simplified expression is:
68x + 20
Since no specific value of x is given, we cannot convert it into a mixed number form.
Add: 12(x+4)+14(4x−2). Answer should be in mixed number form.(1 point)
