question 4/6
4
write two different equations based on the hanger above

Explanation:

Step1: Represent left side total

The left side has 3 groups of $x+2$, so it equals $3(x+2)$.

Step2: Set equal to right side

The right side is 18, so first equation: $3(x+2)=18$.

Step3: Expand left side for second equation

Distribute the 3: $3x + 6 = 18$.

Answer:

1. $3(x+2)=18$
2. $3x+6=18$
