Do 4x and 15+x have the same value when x is 5? Are 4x and 15+x equivalent expressions? Explain your reasoning.

1. yes 2. no

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

When x is equal to 5, 4x and 15+x have the same value because 4*5= 20 and 15+5 = 20.

4x and 15+x are not equivalent expressions because they cannot be simplified to create the same expression nor will they produce the same answer every time.

I hope this helps!
