48j + 42
42j + 48
7j + 48
42j + 8

Answer 1

To find an expression equivalent to \(6(7j + 8)\), you need to distribute the \(6\) to both terms inside the parentheses:

\[
6(7j) + 6(8)
\]

Calculating each term:

\[
6 \times 7j = 42j
\]
\[
6 \times 8 = 48
\]

Now, combine these results:

\[
42j + 48
\]

Therefore, the expression equivalent to \(6(7j + 8)\) is:

\[
\boxed{42j + 48}
\]
