STRATEGY: When I encounter a Quantitative Comparison question featuring algebraic expressions, I immediately look for any obvious values that would make the two quantities equal (I call the strategy "Looking for Equality")
For this question, I can see that, if \(x = 2\), then Quantity A = Quantity B
At this point, I know the correct answer is either C or D.
Let's test another x-value
If x = 1, then Quantity A ≠ Quantity B
Answer: D
