Answer: See explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
1. 5x-7+3x and 3x-7+5x
5x - 7 + 3x
Collect like terms
5x + 3x - 7 = 8x - 7
3x-7+5x
Collect like terms
3x + 5x - 7 = 8x - 7
They're equivalent
2. 4y+9+3y and 3y+9+4y
4y + 9 + 3y
Collect like terms
4y + 3y + 9 = 7y + 9
3y + 9 + 4y
Collect like terms
3y + 4y + 9 = 7y + 9
They're equivalent
3. 6z-2z+4 and 4+2z-6z
6z - 2z + 4 = 4z + 4
4 + 2z - 6z = 4 - 4z
They're not equivalent
