Solve the equation.

\begin{gathered} \frac{1}{3}(x+9)=8 \\ \frac{1}{3}x+3=8 \\ \frac{1}{3}x=8-3 \\ x=5\cdot3 \\ =15 \end{gathered}

The Sammy mistake is in in first step as he does not multiply the number 9 by 1/3.

So incorrect step is step A.

Use the discriminant to describe the roots of each equation. Then select the best description.

\frac{-b+- \sqrt{b^{2} -4ac }  }{2a}
This is the solution of the equation, where a=1, b=-5, c=7

So the discriminant is : 
b^2-4ac=25-4*7= -3
The square root of -3 is non-real, this both solutions are non-real.
