Answer:
No.
Step-by-step explanation:
If you simplify the first problem, ( 9(4-x)) It would equal 36-9x. While they may be close one has an addition sign and the other has a minus sign.
Answer:
No, they are not equal expressions
Step-by-step explanation:
9(4-x)
Expanding the algebra
9(4)- 9(x)
36-9x is different from 36+9x because it has different signs.
An example is, let's assume x is 2, we would see that it won't give the same answer. If x is 2, then
36-9(2)
36-18=18
36+9(2)
36+18= 54
18 is not equal to 54
36-9x is not also equal to 36+9x
