B. associative property of addition
C. identity property
D. multiplication property of equality

3. What should be done to the expression 6x-2x+4 to test Jamie's claim?

Answer:

1. D 2. A 3. Distribute the four in 4(x+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

1. It says that Jamie is saying that they are "not equivalent".

2. You have to use the distributive property to distribute the 4 to x and to the 1.

3. After distributing, compare the two expressions and now see if they are equivalent or not.

Answer:

No Jamie is incorrect

Step-by-step explanation:

No, because in the expression 4(x+1)  you will first need to multiply 4 by x, your result is 4x, and then you multiply 4 by 1, you get 4, so the answer will be 4x+4.

Also in the expression 6x-2x+4  ,you will first need to subtract 2x from  6x, your result is 4x ,and then you add 4 , so the answer will be 4x + 4

Our final answer is:

6x-2x+4 = 4x + 4 and 4(x+1) = 4x + 4

hope this helps!
