3(x+4)=3x+4
true false or open
5 answers
True
is this correct
Apologies for the confusion. I made a mistake in simplifying the equation. Let's correct it:
We have 3(x+4) = 3x + 4.
Expanding the equation using the distributive property, we get:
3x + 12 = 3x + 4
Now, let's subtract 3x from both sides of the equation:
3x - 3x + 12 = 3x - 3x + 4
Simplifying further, we have:
12 = 4
This equation is not true since 12 is not equal to 4.
Therefore, the given equation 3(x+4) = 3x + 4 is indeed False.
We have 3(x+4) = 3x + 4.
Expanding the equation using the distributive property, we get:
3x + 12 = 3x + 4
Now, let's subtract 3x from both sides of the equation:
