Decide whether 2x+8 and 2(x+4)+4 are equivalent expressions. Explain how you know

2x+8 and 2(x+4)+4 are not equivalent expressions

Step-by-step explanation:

Firs we need to expand 2(x+4)+4 using the distributive law as shown;

2(x+4)+4

=2(x) + 2(4) + 4

= 2x + 8 + 4

= 2x + 12

Since the result is not equivalent to 2x+8 hence 2x+8 and 2(x+4)+4 are not equivalent expressions

answer: city needs 2.4 inches of rainfall more to match the record of 40 inches.

step-by-step explanation:

since we have given that

total annual rainfall a city record = 40 inches

this year, total rainfall recorded = 37.6 inches

number of inches of rainfall   is needed to match the record of 40 inches is given by

hence, city needs 2.4 inches of rainfall more to match the record of 40 inches.

all the angles opposite to the angle 150 would be 150 and all the angles that are next to 150 are 30 because they equal 180 it you add it up.
