Are the these expressions equivalent 6a + 12 and 3(3a + 4)

No

Step-by-step explanation:

6a + 12  =? 3(3a + 4)

Distribute

6a+12 =? 3*3a + 3*4

6a+12 =? 9a +12

No

The expressions are not equivalent

No, these expressions aren't equivalent.

Step-by-step explanation:

They aren't equivalent because you can't simplify the expression 6a+12 so 3(3a+4) isn't equivalent. Hope this helps! :)

For 15 to 20, change the equation from y=mx+b into mx-y=-b
Example: 15) y=-5x+2 into -2=-5x-y or 2=5x+y
For 21-29, the numbers in the parenthesis are coordinates (x, y) so uh the equation y=mx+b plug in the m that is given and x and y and then solve for b to complete the equation
Ex: 21) (-8,3) m=2
Y=mx+b
3=2(3)+b
3=6+b
-3=b
So y=2x-3
Do the same to the others
