y = 2x+10

y = 2x +19

y = 32x+48

y = 14x+12

Answer 1

To find the equivalent equation, you can distribute the 14 on the right side of the equation:

y - 7 = 14(8x + 12)
y - 7 = 112x + 168

Now, to isolate y, add 7 to both sides of the equation:

y = 112x + 168 + 7
y = 112x + 175

Therefore, the equivalent equation is y = 112x + 175.
