4 (x) + 4 (2).
The 4 must be distributed to the variable and the 2.

Answer:

4 (x) + 4 (2)

Explanation:

Using the distributive property, we can find the equivalent expression:

In 4(x+2), 4 needs to be distributed (multiplied) to the terms in the parentheses.

So, 4(x+2) is equal to 4 (x) + 4(2) using the distributive property.
