The first ones. You simply need to simplify the middle amount and then distribute.
OpenStudy (acespeedfighter):
so...
OpenStudy (acespeedfighter):
idk :/
OpenStudy (acespeedfighter):
how do i do this? :/
OpenStudy (hayisforhorses):
Work with the part in parenthesis first. x + 2x gives you 3x. 3y - y gives you 2y. The center now equals 3x+2y. But you cant forget about the *3, making it 3(3x+2y)

so x is 1
OpenStudy (hayisforhorses):
Then, you multiply 3x*3 getting 9x. And 2y*3 getting 6y.
OpenStudy (hayisforhorses):
x does not have a value. x=x
OpenStudy (acespeedfighter):
soso add 9x + 6y?
OpenStudy (hayisforhorses):
Kind of?
