To simplify the expression \( 5(3x + 9) \), you can apply the distributive property. This involves multiplying each term inside the parentheses by 5.
Here’s the step-by-step simplification:

\[
5(3x) + 5(9)
\]
2. Calculate each term:
\[
15x + 45
\]
Thus, the expression \( 5(3x + 9) \) is equivalent to \( 15x + 45 \).
