HELP ME

Drag the tiles to the boxes to form correct pairs. Not all tiles will be used.
Match the equivalent expressions.

Answer 1

See attached image

Explanation:

To solve this, first simplify the compound expressions - the ones with multiple x, y terms and see which of the other expressions matches the simplified expression

I will tell you how to solve one of the more complex expressions; the technique is the same for the rest

Let's take the very last expression
4y + 3y + 3x - 6y -10 - 2

To simplify,

group like terms:

=(4y + 3y - 6y) + 3x +(-10 -2)

= y + 3x - 12

Rewriting with x before y gives
3x + y - 12

and there is a matching 3x + y - 12

4y + 3y + 3x - 6y -10 - 2 ⇔ 3x + y - 12

The solution is in the attached image

Answer 2

Explanation:

1. 3x + 2y - 2x + y + 12 is equivalent to x + 3y + 12

2. 4y + 3y + 3x - 6y - 10 - 2 is equivalent to 3x + y - 12

3. x + 3y + 2x - 3x + 7 + 5 is equivalent to 3y + 12

4. I do not know unfortunately
