Is 3(2a - b) and 6a - 3b equivalent?

2 answers:

Yes, they are equivalent. This is because if you factor 3(2a - b), it becomes 3(2a) + 3(-b). This is because you are using the distributive property. That is equal to 6a - 3b and is proven equivalent.

Use the distributive property.
3*2a - 3*b = 6a - 3b.

A+5=5a+5 how do i do this problem

Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

0 = a

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing to do is subtract 5 from both sides.

a + 5 = 5a + 5

- 5 - 5

The 5's cancel out.

Now we have a + 0 = 5a

You next subtract the a from both sides.

a + 0 = 5a

-a -a

0 = 4a

Lastly would to get a by itself so then we divide 4 from both sides

0 = 4a
