Answer:

Option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Option A. 3(x + 2) = 3x + 6

L.H.S. = R.H.S.

So equivalent expressions.

Option B. (3x + 2x) = 5x ≠ x² ( 3 + 2 )

Expressions are not equivalent L.H.S. ≠ R.H.S.

Option C. R.H.S. 3(x+2) = 3x + 6 ≠ L.H.S. (3x + 2)

Expression are not equivalent.

Option D. L.H.S. -3(2+x) = -6 -3x ≠ - 6x - 3 (R.H.S.)

Therefore, expressions are not equivalent.

Option A. is the answer.

$(((((2*(x^2))+6x)-7x)+8)-3x^2)+1 \\ \\ ((((2x^2 + 6x) - 7x) + 8) - 3x^2) + 1 \\ \\ we \ would \ then \ (pull \ out) \ like \ terms. \\ \\ -x^2 - x + 9 = -1 * (x^2 + x - 9) \\ \\ \left[\begin{array}{ccc} -9 + 1 = -8 \\
 -3 + 3 = 0 \\
 -1 + 9 = 8 \\
\end{array}\right] \\ \\ Your \ answer: \boxed{\boxed{\bf{ -x^2 - x + 9

What is the value of x in the following equation? 4(x-1) = 2(x +1)

Alla [95]

Start by multiplying to get rid of parentheses. Then use addition/subtraction to isolate x on one side of the equation. Finally, use division to determine the value of x.
