Rewrite the Planning Notes

Choose or complete equivalent expressions. Equivalent expressions have the same value for every allowed value of the variable.

1.
The solar project team records a fastener count as 7(x + 6). Which expression is equivalent?
  • A. 13x
  • B. 7x + 42
  • C. 7x + 6
  • D. x + 42
2.
Expand the team's expression 5(2x + 9).

5(2x + 9) =  x +  

3.
A mounting-bracket calculation is 3 × (4 × x). Regroup the factors to write one coefficient.

3 × (4 × x) = (3 × 4) × x =  x
