I believe the answer is A because it doesn’t make sense lol. and number b makes sense because if you distribute you’d get 2x+2 number c makes sense as well because no matter the value of x there will be addition in the equation and number d also shows that the question is equivalent because any value of x makes them equivalent for example pretend x=5 2(5+1) —> 2(6) = 12 2(5) + 2—> 10+2= 12 Therefore the expression is equivalent and the best answer to this question is A
