Which of these is an equation rather than an expression?

A4(y - 1) + 1
Bx divided by 25
C2(x + 3) = 10
D3(x + 2) + 4
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. 2(x + 3) = 10
1. An equation must contain two expressions joined by an equal sign. 2. 2(x + 3) = 10 has an equal sign linking 2(x + 3) to 10, so it is an equation. 3. The other three choices contain no equal sign at all, so each of them is only an expression. _Source: OpenStax Elementary Algebra (CC BY 4.0), Ch 1 "Foundations", section 1.2 Use the Language of Algebra_
