Equivalent Expressions

Let's find out which expressions are equivalent by simplifying them. One of the expressions should be not equivalent to the other three.

Simplifying

[tex]2x + 2+ 2x + 3x -8=7x-6[/tex]

Now for the second expression

[tex]4 + 7x -2=7x+2[/tex]

The third expression simplifies to

[tex]-2 + 5x + 2x - 4=7x-6[/tex]

Finally, this is the simplification for the expression

[tex]8x - x - 6=7x-6[/tex]

As seen, the only expression not equivalent to the other three is 4 + 7x – 2
