Question

Four expressions are shown below:

4(8x + 2)
4(7x + 3)
32x + 8
28x + 12

Which two expressions are equivalent to 4(7x + 2 + x)?
A and B
B and C
A and D
A and C

Answer 1

The answer is A and C.

Explanation:

4(7x + 2 + x) equals 32x + 8, and in the question, C is labeled with the same number, so that is a part of the answer, and 4(8x + 2) also equals 32x + 8.

Answer 2

The answer is A and C, because 4(7x + 2 + x) simplifies to 32x + 8, and expressions A and C also simplify to 32x + 8. I hope this helps!
