Answer 2

3(x+2) = 3x + 6

Explanation:

An equivalent expression is an expression that is equal. You need to find if the left and right side of the equal signs are equal to each other by reducing each to simplest terms.

Each of the expressions can be multiplied to find lowest terms by removing the parenthesis.

So 3(x+2) becomes 3x + 6

So x^2(3 + 2) becomes 3x^2 + 2x^2

So 3(x+2) becomes 3x + 6

-3(2+x) = -6 - 3x

Only A has equivalent or equal expressions.
