The two equivalent expressions are 1 and 4
Let's substitute 2 for x

Expression 1
9 + 5(2) - 5 + 3(2) =
9 + 10 - 5 + 6 = 20
Expression 4
4(1 + 2(2)) =
4(1 + 4) =
4(5) = 20

When you substitute 2 for x in expression 1 and 4 you get the same answer of 20.

Expression 1: 9 + 5x - 5 + 3x  and Expression 4: 4(1 + 2x) are equivalent to each other that is 8x + 4.

What is an equivalent?

The equivalent is the expressions that are in different forms but are equal to the same value.

Expression 1: 9 + 5x - 5 + 3x

Expression 2: 10x + 3

Expression 3: x + 12

Expression 4: 4(1 + 2x)

On simplifying, the expressions will be

Expression 1: 4 + 8x

Expression 2: 10x + 3

Expression 3: x + 12

Expression 4: 4 + 8x

Then it is clear that the expression 1 and expression 4 are equivalent to each other.
