It is equivalent because of the distributive property. If you multiply 4 by x and y, you get 4x and 4y.

4x + 4y = 4x + 4y

They are equivalent because they are showing the Distributive Property....The Distributive Property shows that you can Distribute one number into another one, and still get the same answer.....So, you would have to do 4x+4y!!! I hope this helps!!!

Y=x^2 translate 4 units down and 3 units left

klasskru [66]

Answer: Hello! When a graph is translated 4 units down you are moving all of the y values. This makes it the easiest translation that we do, other than no translation! All you have to do is subtract 4. Your equation is y=x2 - 4. If you wanted to move the graph up it is addition and if you want to move it down it is subtraction. When you translate right to left it is more complicated! Hope this helps. :))
