The best way to find out is to make sure each equations are in equal forms. In this case, I’d like to make sure that both equations are expanded.

Although 6x+12 is expanded, 2(3x–6) is not. All you have to do is multiply both numbers inside the parentheses with the number on the outside.

2(3x–6)
2×3x=6x; 2×(–6)=–12

So, 2(3x–6) is 6x–12.

However, that does mean that 6x–12≠6x+12. (The expressions are NOT equivalent.) This is because although the variable 6x are the same, 12 is not equal to –12, meaning they aren’t the same number.

Hello! Your answer would be BELOW

Step-by-step explanation:

In the history of education the one-room schoolhouse has played an important role in several countries. In the rural areas of the US Midwest and in Norway the one-room schoolhouse was the most common school in the second half of the nineteenth century and the first decades of the twentieth. Although the schoolhouses at first sight seem identical there are some interesting points of distinction in their educational history and how their legacy is interpreted, managed, preserved and promoted today. In the Midwest they are a beloved national icon, often listed, embodying national values and virtues. In Norway their story is effectively untold, not a single one is listed on national preservation lists and by no means do they embody national identity, virtues or values. This article offers an explanation for this different treatment.
