Question

1. Which expression is equivalent to $$ 3(x+6) $$ ? $$ \begin{array}{ll}	ext { A. } 3+x+3+6 & 	ext { B. } 3 x+6 \ 	ext { C. } 3+x+6 & 	ext { D. } 3 x+18\end{array} $$

1. Begin by applying the distributive property to the expression $$ 3(x+6) $$:
   $$
   3(x+6) = 3 \times x + 3 \times 6 = 3x + 18
   $$

2. Comparing the result with the given options:
   - **A.** $$ 3+x+3+6 $$
   - **B.** $$ 3x+6 $$
   - **C.** $$ 3+x+6 $$
   - **D.** $$ 3x+18 $$

3. The expression $$ 3x+18 $$ matches option **D**.
The equivalent expression is $$ 3x + 18 $$, which is option D.
