4 possibilities:

a) \(2x+3x-5+9x+\frac{1}{2}=?\)

Combine like terms --> \(14x-4.5=?\)

b)\(2(x+3x-5+9x+\frac{1}{2})=?\)

Distribute --> \(2x+6x-10+18x+1=?\)

Cobine like terms --> \(26x-9=?\)

c)\(\frac{2x+3x-5+9x+1}{2}=?\)

Combine like terms: ​\(\frac{14x-4}{2}=?\)

Simplify: \(7x-2=?\)

d)\(2(\frac{x+3x-5+9x+1}{2})=?\)

The 2 as the coefficient cancel out with the 2 in the denominator: \(x+3x-5+9x+1=?\)

Combine like terms:\(13x-4=?\)

 

Really hope one of those answered your question!
