<h3><u>This equation is wrong.</u></h3>
3(x + 12) does not, and never will, equal 3(x + 5)
We can solve the equation to verify.
3(x + 12) = 3(x + 5)
<em><u>Distributive property.</u></em>
3x + 36 = 3x + 15
<em><u>Subtract 15 from both sides.</u></em>
3x + 21 = 3x
<em><u>Cancel like terms.</u></em>
21 = 0 <u>× this is incorrect.</u>
