To find the difference between the expressions \( (3x + 4x) + 2x \) and \( 3x + (4x + 2x) \), we can simplify both expressions.

1. For the first expression \( (3x + 4x) + 2x \):
- Simplify \( 3x + 4x \) to get \( 7x \).
- Then, \( 7x + 2x = 9x \).

2. For the second expression \( 3x + (4x + 2x) \):
- Simplify \( 4x + 2x \) to get \( 6x \).
- Then, \( 3x + 6x = 9x \).

Now, both expressions simplify to \( 9x \). Therefore, there is **no difference** between the two expressions.

The correct response is **0**.

The Associative Property states that the way in which numbers are grouped in addition or multiplication does not change their sum or product.

Given the options:

1. **\(3x \cdot (4x \cdot 5) = 3x(4x + 5)\)** - This equation does not demonstrate the Associative Property; it mixes multiplication and addition incorrectly.

2. **\(3x \cdot (4x \cdot 5) = (3x \cdot 4x) \cdot 5\)** - This equation correctly shows the Associative Property of multiplication, where the grouping of factors can be changed without affecting the product.

3. **\((3x + 4x) \cdot 5 = 3x + (4x \cdot 5)\)** - This equation does not demonstrate the Associative Property; it does not correctly apply the property of addition or multiplication.

4. **\(3x \cdot (4x + 5x) = (3x + 4x) \cdot 5\)** - This mixes multiplication and addition incorrectly as well, so it does not demonstrate the Associative Property.

The correct response that demonstrates the Associative Property is:

**\(3x \cdot (4x \cdot 5) = (3x \cdot 4x) \cdot 5\)**.

To simplify the expression \((3r \cdot 5) \cdot (-3 \cdot 8)\) and find an equivalent expression, we first calculate each part separately:

1. **Calculate \(3r \cdot 5\)**:
- This gives \(15r\).

2. **Calculate \(-3 \cdot 8\)**:
- This gives \(-24\).

Now we can combine these results:

\[
(3r \cdot 5) \cdot (-3 \cdot 8) = 15r \cdot (-24)
\]

This can be written as:

\[
15r \cdot -24 = -360r
\]

Let's check each answer choice to see if any match \(-360r\):

1. **−45r⋅5**:
- This simplifies to \(-225r\) (not equivalent).

2. **24r⋅(5⋅−3)**:
- This simplifies to \(24r \cdot (-15) = -360r\) (equivalent).

3. **15r⋅(5⋅8)**:
- This simplifies to \(15r \cdot 40 = 600r\) (not equivalent).

4. **(5⋅−3)⋅−9r**:
- This simplifies to \(-15 \cdot -9r = 135r\) (not equivalent).

The expression that is equivalent to \((3r \cdot 5) \cdot (-3 \cdot 8)\) is:

**24r⋅(5⋅−3)**.

To rewrite the expression \((3x - 5)(2x + 2)\) using the Distributive Property, we will distribute each term in the first parenthesis by each term in the second parenthesis.

1. **Distributing \(3x\)**:
- \(3x \cdot 2x = 6x^2\)
- \(3x \cdot 2 = 6x\)

2. **Distributing \(-5\)**:
- \(-5 \cdot 2x = -10x\)
- \(-5 \cdot 2 = -10\)

Now, combine all these results:

\[
(3x - 5)(2x + 2) = 6x^2 + 6x - 10x - 10
\]

Combine like terms (\(6x - 10x\)):

\[
6x^2 - 4x - 10
\]

Thus, the expression rewritten is:

**6x² - 4x - 10**.

This corresponds to the third response option:

**6x² − 4x − 10**.

To rewrite the expression \(4x^2 - 36\) using the Distributive Property, we can first recognize that it can be factored as a difference of squares.

The expression \(4x^2 - 36\) can be rewritten as:

\[
4(x^2 - 9)
\]

Next, \(x^2 - 9\) is also a difference of squares and can be factored as:

\[
x^2 - 9 = (x + 3)(x - 3)
\]

Putting it all together, we can express \(4x^2 - 36\) as:

\[
4(x^2 - 9) = 4((x + 3)(x - 3)) = (2(x + 3))(2(x - 3)) = (2x + 6)(2x - 6)
\]

Now, let's compare this with the given options:

1. **\((x + 18)(x - 18)\)** - This is incorrect; it doesn't match our expression.
2. **\(4x(x - 9)\)** - This is also incorrect; it doesn't match our expression.
3. **\((2x + 9)(x - 9)\)** - This does not match our expression.
4. **\((2x + 6)(2x - 6)\)** - This matches our expression.

Thus, the correct answer is:

**\((2x + 6)(2x - 6)\)**.

To find an expression equivalent to \(3x^2 + 2x - 5x - 2x^2 + 2\), we can first combine like terms:

1. Combine the \(x^2\) terms:
\[
3x^2 - 2x^2 = x^2
\]

2. Combine the \(x\) terms:
\[
2x - 5x = -3x
\]

3. The constant term is:
\[
+2
\]

Now we can rewrite the entire expression with the simplified terms:
\[
x^2 - 3x + 2
\]

Next, we will factor the quadratic expression \(x^2 - 3x + 2\):

We need two numbers that multiply to \(2\) (the constant term) and add to \(-3\) (the coefficient of \(x\)). The numbers \(-1\) and \(-2\) satisfy these conditions:

\[
(x - 1)(x - 2)
\]

Now let's compare this factored form with the given options:

1. **\((x - 2)(x - 1)\)** - This is equivalent to \(x^2 - 3x + 2\).
2. **\((3x + 2)(x + 1)\)** - This does not match our expression.
3. **\((x + 1)(x + 2)\)** - This does not match our expression.
4. **\((x + 2)(x - 2)\)** - This does not match our expression.

Thus, the correct answer is:

**\((x - 2)(x - 1)\)**.
