Answer:

Option D

Explanation:

Expanding option A equations:

8 + (3 * y) = 8 + 3y

(8 + 3) * y = 11y

∴ not equivalent.

Expanding option B equations:

(7 - 3) * y = 4y

7 - (3 * y) = 7 - 3y

∴ not equivalent.

Expanding option C equations:

(6 ÷ y) + 13 =
(6)/(y) + 13

13 + (y ÷ 6) =
13 + (y)/(6)

∴ not equivalent.

Expanding option D equations:

7 + (y * 5) = 7 + 5y

7 + (5 * y) = 7 + 5y

∴ equivalent.

Hope this helps!
