Kassidy Chambers · Answer 1

Use the distributive property and yet rid of the parenthesis (or however you spell that)

and get x+3*2x-1

then add like terms

and get

3x+2.

that's your answer.

3x+2

Shepard · Answer 2

(x+3) (2x-1)

So first, you want to combine the x's. To do this, count the x in (x+3) as 1. So the x's combined are equal to 3x. Now, combine the 3 and - 1. This expression simplified is equal to [ (3x+2) ]
