Which expression is equivalent to 6a + 15? 6(a + 5)
3(2a + 5)
3(3a + 12)
6(a + 12)

The answer is going to be 3(2a+5)

Explanation:

6(a+b) = 6a +30 (it is not equivalent to 6a+15)

You have to multiply what’s in the brackets by 6

3(2a+5) = 6a+15 ( it is equivalent )

3 (3a+12) = 9a+36 (not equivalent)

6(a+12) = 6a+12 (not equivalent)

I hope this helps:))
