Maricella solves for x in the equation 4x-2(3x-4)+4=-x+3(x+1)+1. She begins by adding –4 + 4 on the left side of the equation an
Elodia [21]

Maricella’s strategy is incorrect as the values added on the left and right side of the equation changes the original equation 4x-2(3x-4)+4=-x+3(x+1)+1  to  4x-2(3x-4)+4=-x+3(x+1)+3.

Further explanation:

Maricella begin by adding -4+4 on the left side of the equation and 1+1 on the right side of the equation 4x-2(3x-4)+4=-x+3(x+1)+1.

The value added on the left is equal to zero so it does not change the equation but the value added on the right is 2, a non-zero digit so it changes the equation as shown below.

4x-2(3x-4)+4-4+4=-x+3(x+1)+1+1+1\\4x-2(3x-4)+4+0=-x+3(x+1)+1+2\\4x-2(3x-4)+4=-x+3(x+1)+3

Therefore, the strategy used by Maricella will change the equation and so the solution of the equation will be incorrect.

One way of solving such a linear equation is by adding or subtracting the required value on each side of the equation. and then simplifying the further equation.

Similarly, the other way to solve any linear equation is by separating the variable terms on one side of the equation and constant terms on the other side of the equation.

After this simplify the linear equation to obtain the solution of the equation for x.

Whereas Maricella’s strategy fails to solve the equation 4x-2(3x-4)+4=-x+3(x+1)+1 since the values added and subtracted in the equation changes the original equation completely.

A group of friends are playing a trivia game. players spin a spinner 2 times to find the 2 categories of trivia questions they w
Delicious77 [7]

The probability that a player will be asked a math question and then a music question is 0.03125

<h3>How to determine the probability?</h3>

The size of the sections are given as:

Music = 0.5

Sport = 0.5

Others = 1

So, the total size is:

Total = 0.5 + 0.5 + 1 + 1 + 1

Evaluate

Total = 4

The probability of asking a math question is:

P(Math) = 1/4 = 0.25

The probability of asking a music question is:

P(Music) = 0.5/4 = 0.125

The required probability is:

P(Math and Music) = P(Math) * P(Music)

This gives

P(Math and Music) = 0.25 * 0.125

Evaluate

P(Math and Music) = 0.03125

Hence, the probability that a player will be asked a math question and then a music question is 0.03125
