Respuesta :

Answer:

Luis wrote an incorrect expression.

Step-by-step explanation:

As per Terrell, the correct expression is (2x+2x) + (5x+5x) + (1+1) which is equal to 12x + 2

For you who got incorrect answer, the answer if you simplified it must be 12x + 2. Let's check:

Anya     2x+2x+5x+1+5x+1 =

            12x + 2 [CORRECT]

Katrin    2(5x+1) + 2x

             10x+2+2x

             12x + 2 [CORRECT]

Luis       2(2x) + 2(5x+1)

             4x+10x+2

             14x + 2 [INCORRECT]

Steve     1+1+ x(2+2+5+5)

              2+ x(12)

             12x + 2 [CORRECT]
