The expressions are not equivalent because Negative 3 (2) (5 minus 4) + 3 (2 minus 6) = negative 18 and Negative 12 (2) minus 6 = negative 30. The expressions are not equivalent because Negative 3 (2) (5 minus 4) + 3 (2 minus 6) = negative 18 and Negative 12 (3) minus 6 = negative 42. The expressions are equivalent because Negative 3 (2) (5 minus 4) + 3 (2 minus 6) = negative 18 and Negative 12 (negative 2) minus 6 = 18. The expressions are equivalent because Negative 3 (2) (5 minus 4) + 3 (2 minus 6) = negative 18 and Negative 12 (1) minus 6 = negative 18
