Answer 2

these r 3 questions :)

Answer 3

i know this :D

Answer 4

@ganeshie8

Answer 5

a.) If you simplify which of the problems does not equal 2x + 6

Answer 6

could you i was thinking the second answer

Answer 7

x + x + 2 + 2 + 2
x+x = 2x
2+2+2=6
2x + 6

Answer 8

@heyyitspaige, In my honest opinion paige, i deep down know that you know how to do this.

Answer 9

uhhh forget about the could you i wrote was a mistake :D

Answer 10

what?

Answer 11

2(x + 3)
(Use distributive property)
(2x)+(2*3)
2x + 6

Answer 12

omg its actually the 3rd one rirght?

Answer 13

2x + 23 (I'm guessing you mean 2x + 2*3?)

Answer 14

so what should it be it says if u were to correct it.. what should it be?

Answer 15

You mean the way i wrote it or the way your wrote it? (the way your wrote it it's as simplified as can be, the way i wrote it it simplifies to 2x + 6)

Answer 16

''Which of the given expressions is NOT equivalent to the expression 2x + 6? Why? If you were to correct it, what should it be?''

Answer 17

I think 2x + 23 does not equal 2x+6
so that should be the answer

Answer 18

yep :)

Answer 19

Well wait
Check the last one @ganeshie8

Answer 20

the last what? XD

Answer 21

4 + x + 2 + x = 6 + x

Answer 22

last one :

4 + x + 2 + x

4 + 2 + x + x

6 + 2x

2x + 6

this is fine right ?

Answer 23

6 + 2x*

Answer 24

Or 2x + 6

Answer 25

So it is indeed 3

Answer 26

ok im confused :/

Answer 27

i know its the 3rd one...

Answer 28

Why? If you were to correct it, what should it be? Because 2x + 23 does not have any relation to 2x + 6. To correct it add a multiplication symbol and solve: 2x + 2*3 = 2x + 6

Answer 29

what is 2x+23?

Answer 30

thank you! :)

Answer 31

You're welcome :)

Answer 32

youve been so much help!

Answer 33

Write an expression equivalent to 4x + 12 using the distributive property.

So what are both 4x and 12 divisible by?

Answer 34

@heyyitspaige ?

Answer 35

oh sry im writing the answer for the first one ;)

Answer 36

lol no problem

Answer 37

kk next question :)

Answer 38

Write an expression equivalent to 4x + 12 using the distributive property.

So what are both 4x and 12 divisible by?

Answer 39

24?

Answer 40

o.O

Answer 41

im so bad at math so sry :( :(

Answer 42

Divisible by not factors of lol

Answer 43

It's ok

Answer 44

ughhh i feel so dumb

Answer 45

You're ok

Answer 46

:)

Answer 47

4 adn 12 are both divisible by 4

Answer 48

k

Answer 49

So divide 4 from both 4x and 12

Answer 50

Now you have x + 3

Answer 51

kk :)

Answer 52

Add 4 as a factor to the beginning so now you have the answer of 4(x+3)

Answer 53

thank you! again :/

Answer 54

lol it's ok

Answer 55

Answer 57

@ganeshie8 ?

Answer 58

so were on the 3rd question now?

Answer 59

Yes

Answer 60

Write an expression equivalent to 4x + 12 by combining like terms.

Answer 61

But all like terms are already combined.... @ganeshie8 can you help out please?
