Are these expressions equivalent? Explain why or why not. 42 + 35 706 + 5)

Yes, they are equivalent.

Step-by-step explanation:

Both of the expressions equal to 77. 42+35 is easy, just add to get 77. To solve 7(6+5) remember PEMDAS which tells you to do parentheses first. So add 6+5, which is 11, then multiply by 7. 11*7 is 77, therefore the expressions are equivalent.

question 1 is 8, question 2 is 9, question 3 is 24

step-by-step explanation:

now, the numbers they give you at the top are the key. from there, you just have to plug and chug! let's try 1, 2, and 3!

key: a=3, b=5, c=6

1. a+5

remember, a=3, so we plug that in to get 3+5=8

2. 15-c

c=6, so we plug that in to get 15-6=9

3. 4b

b=6, so we plug it in to get 4*6=24

time to try the rest on your own! if you put the answers below in a comment, i'll check them for you!
