Which expressions are equivalent to 3 (6e + 4) +8 (e + 2) + 6e ? Select all that apply. 4(8e + 28) O 2e +5 (6e + 4) + 24 23e + 28 4(8e+7) A 28 + 32e

Answer 1

Given the expression

3 (6e + 4) +8 (e + 2) + 6e.

Expand the brackets present

18e + 12 + 8e + 16 + 6e

Collect like terms together and simplify

=18e + 8e + 6e + 12 + 16

=32e + 28

=28 + 32e

Or factorize the result, we have

32e + 28 = 4(8e + 7)

The correct choices are :

4(8e + 7)

And 28 + 32e
