$7 k + 32$ $7k + 32$ See explanation for further details.

$4 k + 12 + 13 + k + 2 k + 7$ $4k + 12 + 13 + k + 2k + 7$

We can add the numbers and combine like terms.

$(4 k + k + 2 k) + (12 + 13 + 7)$ $(4k + k + 2k) + (12 + 13 + 7)$

$(4 k + k + 2 k) + (25 + 7)$ $(4k + k + 2k) + (25 + 7)$

$(5 k + 2 k) + (25 + 7)$ $(5k + 2k) + (25 + 7)$

$(5 k + 2 k) + (32)$ $(5k + 2k) + (32)$

$(7 k) + (32)$ $(7k) + (32)$

$7 k + 32$ $color(blue)(7k + 32$
