(D) $x (2 x + 7 y)$

$2 x squared plus 7 y$ a

$2x^2+7xy$

$2x+7xy$

$2x^2+7x$

Verified step by step guidance

Identify the expression to simplify: $x\left(2x + 7y\right)$.

Apply the distributive property, which means multiplying $x$ by each term inside the parentheses separately.

Multiply $x$ by the first term inside the parentheses: $x \times 2x = 2x^2$.

Multiply $x$ by the second term inside the parentheses: $x \times 7y = 7xy$.

Combine the results to write the simplified expression as \$2x^2 + 7xy$.
