Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

(5x + 3) - (2x - 6)

Step 2: Simplify

  1. Distribute negative:                    5x + 3 - 2x + 6
  2. Combine like terms (x):               3x + 3 + 6
  3. Combine like terms (Z):              3x + 9
Answer: 3 (x+3)

Explain:

Remove the parentheses - 5x+3 - 2x-6

Add like terms - 5x+-2x=3x and 3+6 = 9

Now we have 3x + 9

Factor the expression - 3 (x+3)
