Caden states that n2 +3n + 2n is an equivalent expression to 6n. Why is Caden's statement incorrect? Select all that apply. Because n2 + 3n + 2n simplifies to n (n + 5), which is not equivalent to 6n. Because when you substitute 1 for n in both expressions, n² + 3n + 2n has a value of 7, and 6n has a value of 6.
