Only 3(a−b) and 3a−3b are equivalent
Further explanation:
We have to evaluate each expression to evaluate if the expressions are equivalent or not.
So,
<u>For 3(a−b)</u>
As we can see that 3(a-b) results in 3a-3b so these are equivalent
<u>For 2a(2+b)</u>
As we can see that 2a(2+b) doesn't result in 4ab so these are not equivalent
Hence,
Only 3(a−b) and 3a−3b are equivalent

Whata re the answers that i can oick from
Use dimensional analysis. 1 lb = 16 oz will be the conversion factor. 162 oz x (1 lb/16 oz) = 10.125 lb.
Answer is B.) (-3,-3) and (2,7)
surface area (S) of a right rectangular solid is:
S = 2*L*W + 2*L*H + 2*W*H (equation 1)
where:
L = length
W = width
H = height
-----
you have:
L = 7
W = a
H = 4
-----
formula becomes:
S = 2*7*a + 2*7*4 + 2*a*4
simplify:
S = 14*a + 56 + 8*a
combine like terms:
S = 22*a + 56
-----
answer is:
S = 22*a + 56 (equation 2)
-----
to prove, substitute any value for a in equation 2:
let a = 15
S = 22*a + 56 (equation 2)
S = 22*15 + 56
S = 330 + 56
S = 386
-----
since a = 15, then W = 15 because W = a
go back to equation 1 and substitute 15 for W:
S = 2*L*W + 2*L*H + 2*W*H (equation 1)
where:
L = length
W = width
H = height
-----
you have:
L = 7
W = 15
H = 4
-----
equation 1 becomes:
S = 2*7*15 + 2*7*4 + 2*15*4
perform indicated operations:
S = 210 + 56 + 120
S = 386
-----
surface area is the same using both equations so:
equations are good.
formula for surface area of right rectangle in terms of a is:
S = 22*a + 56
