Praxis 5003 Practice Question

Which of the following expressions are equivalent to 2(4f + 2g) ? Select ALL that apply.

Correct Answer: A,F

Rationale: To determine which expressions are equivalent to 2(4f + 2g), we first simplify this expression:

2(4f + 2g) = 8f + 4g.

Option A, 4(2f + g), simplifies to 8f + 4g, making it equivalent. Option F also simplifies to 8f + 4g, confirming its equivalence.

Option B, 4(2f + 2g), simplifies to 8f + 8g, which is not equivalent.

Option C, 2f(4 + 2g), simplifies to 8f + 4fg, which introduces an additional variable factor, thus not equivalent.

Option D simplifies to 16f + 4g, which changes the coefficient of f, making it incorrect.

Option E simplifies to 8f + 2g, which alters the coefficient of g, rendering it non-equivalent.
