    If the sign "x" is the alphabet x, then the steps are as follows:


    2(3x-5)+5


    = 6x-10+5      (remove the brackets by multiplying 3x-5 by 2)


    = 6x-5              (add or subtract the like terms -10+5=-5)


    If the sign "x" is the multiplication sign, then the steps are as follows:


    2(3x-5)+5


    = 2(-15)+5       (do what is in the brackets first by multiplying plus 3 by minus 5 which is -15)


    = -30+5            (remove the brackets by multiplying plus 2 by minus 15 which is minus 30)


    = -25                 (add minus 30 and plus 5 which is -25)


    Please let me know if you have any questions.

    2(3x-5)+5


    =6x - 10 +5


    = 6x -5
