Which expression is equivalent to 17x − 8x + 2 and why?

2 − 9x, because (17x − 8x) + 2 = −9x + 2 = 2 − 9x

2 + 9x, because (17x − 8x) + 2 = 9x + 2 = 2 + 9x

11x, because 17x − 8x + 2 = 9x + 2 = 11x

7x, because 17x − 8x + 2 = 17x − 10x = 7x

2 + 9x, because (17x − 8x) + 2 = 9x + 2 = 2 + 9x

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expresion is 17x-8x+2.

We want to find an expression that is equivalent to this expression.

We first simplify:

This implies that

By the commutative property;

The second choice is correct.

1.3

step-by-step explanation:

3x2=6   9x+6

bring down the 6 on both sides

6+6=12

12= 9x

divide by 9

12/9 =

1.3 =x

4 candies

step-by-step explanation:

7 x 28 = 196
