In order to get the equivalent expression, first we must note the repetition of the value 5. Since the value of 5 is repeated 6 times during the multiplication, it can be written in indicinal form as shown;
in the equation means that 5 is being repeated 6 times.
I would say that it is either <span>B. Multiply the second equation by 4. Then add that result to the first equation or </span><span>D. Add the two equations together </span>
