Which best proves why the expressions 4 (x+3)+2x and 6 (x+2) must be equivalent expressions

Answer by Guest

When you solve for the first expression, 4(x+3)+2x it is equal to 6x+12 which is the same as 6(x+2). The work for it is below.

4(x+3)+2x
4x+12+2x (Add like terms)
6x+12

and

6(x+2)
6x+12 

So there for both expressions are equivalent to each other.
