Answer: [D] 2(36-12)

Step-by-step explanation:

    First, we will simplify the given expression.

38 – 14 = 24

    Now, we will see if the other expressions are equivalent or not.

[A] 2(19-7) = 24

[B] 24 = 24

[C] (19-7)2 = 24

[D] 2(36-12) = 48

    The expression is NOT equivalent to the expression 38 – 14 is;

                   [D] 2(36-12)

Hi :)

Let's evaluate all these expressions

———————

[tex]\boldsymbol{\boxed{38-14=24}}}[/tex]

  So Now the question boils down to --

What expression is NOT equivalent to [tex]\boldsymbol{24?}[/tex]

  • Option (A).

     [tex]\boldsymbol{2(19-7)}[/tex]

     [tex]\boldsymbol{2(12)}[/tex]

     [tex]\boldsymbol{24}[/tex]

Option (A) is ruled out, because we're looking for expressions that are not equivalent to 24.

  • Option (B)

   Well 24 is always equal to 24!

  • Option (C)

     [tex]\boldsymbol{(19-7)2}[/tex]

     [tex]\boldsymbol{(12)2}[/tex]

     [tex]\boldsymbol{24}[/tex]

  • Option (D)

    [tex]\boldsymbol{2(36-12)}[/tex]

     [tex]\boldsymbol{2(24)}[/tex]

     [tex]\boldsymbol{48}[/tex]
