Question

Which expression is equivalent to
−4 + 8 (7 + x) ?

Answer 1

The correct answer is 28 + X

Answer 2

Hello.

Remember, equivalent means equal.

Let's simplify the expression.

First, let's use the Distributive Property, which states

`\hookrightarrow`
`\mathrm{a(b+c)=ab+ac}`

Use it:

`\hookrightarrow\mathrm{-4+8(7+x)}`

`\hookrightarrow`
`\mathrm{-4+56+8x}`

`\hookrightarrow\mathrm{52+8x}`

Therefore, the answer is

`\mathrm{52+8x}`

I hope this helps you.

Have a nice day.
