To evaluate the expression \(2x + 2y\) for \(x = 7\) and \(y = 3\), we can substitute the values of \(x\) and \(y\) into the expression:
\[ 2x + 2y = 2(7) + 2(3) \]
Now, calculate each part:
\[ 2(7) = 14 \] \[ 2(3) = 6 \]
Now, add those results together:
\[ 14 + 6 = 20 \]
Therefore, the value of the expression \(2x + 2y\) when \(x = 7\) and \(y = 3\) is \(20\).
The answer is \(20\).
