Determine whether the following expressions are equivalent: 94a + 28 and 108a - 14(a - 2)
responses:
yes, because 108a - 14(a - 2) simplifies to 28 - 94a
yes, because 108a - 14(a - 2) simplifies to 94a + 28
1 answer
The expression 108a - 14(a - 2) simplifies to 28 - 94a, not to 94a + 28. Therefore, the expressions 94a + 28 and 108a - 14(a - 2) are not equivalent.
