Part A: S = 24x-72

Part B: S and T are not equivalent for any values of x since when both equations are set equal to 0 they equal different answers. T=.75, while S=3

Step-by-step explanation:

To distribute first you multiply 4 by 6x which equals 24, then you multiply 4 by - 18 which gives you - 72. Then you the equation together.
