Answer 1

To simplify the expression 6(3x−5)+2(3x−5)−8(3x−5), we can start by distributing the coefficients to the terms inside the parentheses:

6(3x−5) = 18x − 30
2(3x−5) = 6x − 10
8(3x−5) = 24x − 40

Now, substitute these expressions back into the original expression:

18x − 30 + 6x − 10 - 24x + 40

Combine like terms:

(18x + 6x - 24x) + (-30 - 10 + 40)

Combine the x-terms:

0x + (-30 - 10 + 40)

Combine the constant terms:

0 + 0

The simplified expression is 0.
