Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
b(a + 1) + a = b*a + b + a = ab + b + a
1) b(2a +1 ) = b*2a + b*1 = 2ab + b Not equivalent.
2)a + (a +1)*b = a + ab+ b Equivalent
3) (a +1)(b+ a) = a*(b +a) + 1*(b+a) = ab+ a² +b + a Not equivalent.
4) (a + 1)b + a = ab+ b + a Equivalent
5) a + b(a+1) = a +ab + b Equivalent
6) a + (a +1) + b = a + a + 1 + b = 2a + 1 +b Not equivalent.
7) a(b +1) + b = ab + a + b Equivalent
14 pounds 9 ounces = 233 ounces
9 pounds 14 ounces = 158 ounces
233-158=75 ounces=4 pounds 11 ounces
