Answer:
Yes
6(x+0.4) is equivalent to 3(2x+0.8)
Explanation:
Given in the questions two expressions
6(x + 0.4)
3(2x + 0.8)
We will apply distributive law
It is a law relating the operations of multiplication and addition, stated symbolically
a(b + c) = ab + ac
6(x + 0.4)
= 6(x) + 6(0.4)
= 6x + 2.4
3(2x + 0.8)
= 3(2x) + 3(0.8)
= 6x + 2.4
Since both equations when expanded have same answers, hence they are equivalent
