It's simple multiplication
Answer:
-4x - 24
Step-by-step explanation:
distribute the -4 by multiplying it by what is in the parenthisis. Since it is negative that makes a -4x and a -24
In (A), we have 9 : 2.
Multiply by 2, we get 18 : 4
In (B), we have 36 : 8.
Divide by 2, we get, 18 : 4.
In (D), we have 54 : 12.
Divide by 3, we get, 18 : 4.
Hence, (C) is not equivalent to the given statement.
