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!!!

The ratio A/r² would represent $\pi$ which is the circumference of a circle divided by its diameter.

You can see this because the area of a circle is $\pi$ r² and if you divided that by the radius squared, you are given pi which is the circumference of a circle divided by its diameter.
