Which expression below is equivalent to 2x + 8? 8(x + 1)
2(x + 2) + 2
x + 2(x + 4)
x + 4 + x + 4

D) x+4+x+4

The two x terms combine to x+x = 2x

The other pair of like terms, the constants, add to 4+4 = 8

Overall we get 2x+8

2x+8 is also equivalent to 2(x+4) when you factor out the GCF 2.

a complex number is a number that can be expressed in the form a + bi, where a and b are real numbers, and i is a solution of the equation x2 = −1. because no real number satisfies this equation, i is called an imaginary number. has no real solution, since the square of a real number cannot be negative.

answer: bearing in mind that a rectangle has a perimeter of length + length + width + width.

step-by-step explanation:

p = perimeter

l = length

x=width

p = 2l + 2x

p = 2(l+x)     < ==== perimeter of the base of the box.
