SHOW YOUR WORK

The two expressions that are equivalent are:

A) 6(5 + y)

C) y + (4 • 11)

To show this, we can simplify each expression and see that they are equal:

A) 6(5 + y) = 6 * 5 + 6 * y = 30 + 6y

C) y + (4 • 11) = y + 44

Since there is no way to simplify these expressions further, we can see that 30 + 6y is equivalent to y + 44.

WHATS THE ANSWER

The answer is: A) 6(5 + y) and C) y + (4 • 11) are the two expressions that are equivalent.
