Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Which expression is NOT equivalent to (2x + 6)?

Expression 3 ((2x + 2^3)) is not equivalent because it simplifies to (2x + 8), which is different from (2x + 6).

To correct it, we should replace (2^3) with 6: [2x + 2^3 = 2x + 8

b. Write an expression equivalent to (4x + 12) using the distributive property: [4x + 12 = 4(x + 3)]

c. Write an expression equivalent to (4x + 12) by combining like terms: [4x + 12]
