Answer:
5x+8y
Step-by-step explanation:
We can first open the brackets by using the distrubitive propety.
2(x+4y)+3x
2x+8y+3x
Now we can combine like terms.
5x+8y.
I combined the 3x and the 2x. This works because imagined I have 3 of something then I got 2 more of that something I would now have 5 of that something.
