The correct answer is:
C. The expressions are equivalent because Ella got the same result when she substituted zero for f.
Both expressions evaluate to 8.6 when f is substituted with 1, indicating that they are equivalent.
Ella completed the following work to test the equivalence of two expressions.
5f+3.6
5(1)+3.6
5+3.6
8.6
6f+2.6
6(1)+2.6
6+2.6
8.6
Which is true about the expressions?
(1 point)
