Answer:
The given equation is equivalent by using the distributive property
Therefore 4x+8=4x+8 are equivalent
Explanation:
Given equation is 4x+8=10x-2(3x-4)
To solve the given equation as below :
4x+8=10x-2(3x-4)
Now applying the distributive property a(x+y)=ax+axy
4x+8=10x-2(3x)-2(-4)
=10x-6x+8
=4x+8 ( adding the like terms )
Therefore 4x+8=4x+8
Therefore they are equivalent by using the distributive property
