Simplify: -4(2x + 10)

-8x - 40

Simplify: 2(x + 8) + 4(3x - 9)

14x - 20

Simplify: 3(5x - 1)

15x - 3

Evaluate if x = 2 and y = 3: xy - x

Chicago Cubs

The best Major League Baseball Team

Simplify: 3x + 8 - 2x - (-10)

x + 18

Chicago Bears

This team will finish ahead of the Packers this year.

Solve: 2x - 9 + 3x = 2x - 30

x = -7

Solve: 4x + 6 = 11x + 6

x = 0

Solve: 3x + 4 = 10

x = 2

Solve: 10 - x = 3x - 2

x = 3
