You asked:

Simplify the expression: \(2 \left(5 x + 3\right) - 2 \left(2 x - 3\right)\)

MathBot Answer:

Simplified:

\[ 2 \left(5 x + 3\right) - 2 \left(2 x - 3\right) = 6 x + 12 \]


$$\begin{aligned}2 \cdot \left(5 x + 3\right) - 2 \cdot \left(2 x - 3\right)\\2 \cdot \left(5 x + 3\right) - 4 x - 6\\10 x + 6 - 4 x - 6\\- 4 x + 6 + 10 x + 6\\6 x + 12\end{aligned}$$
