The first mistake made in the steps to solve the equation is; Step 3 is incorrect and should be x = 10/8

<h3>How to solve algebraic equations?</h3>

We are given the algebraic expression;

6x - 1 = -2x + 9

Step 1; By addition property of equality, add 2x to both sides to get;

6x - 1 + 2x = -2x + 2x + 9

8x - 1 = 9

Step 2; By addition property of equality, add 1 to both sides to get;

8x - 1 + 1 = 9 + 1

8x = 10

Step 3; By division property of equality, divide both sides by 8 to get;

8x/8 = 10/8

x = 10/8

Step 4; By simplifying the fraction, we have;

x = 5/4

Step 3 shows 8/10 and as such it is the first mistake.

The equation shows a number multipled by 8. n x 8 = Which is true about the product?
ikadub [295]

Answer:

  It is a multiple of 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The product may or may not be a factor of 8. We usually think of the factors of an integer as being positive integers, so the factors of 8 would be 1, 2, 4, or 8. If 8n is to be a factor of 8, then n must be 1/8, 1/4, 1/2, or 1. This will not be the case in general.

__

The product of 8 and any number is a multiple of 8. (Again, we usually think of a multiple of 8 as being an integer, which would require the number n to be an integer.)

__

No product of two (integer) numbers is a prime number. If 8n is to be a prime, then the value of n must be <em>(some prime number)/8</em>. Again, this will not be the case in general.

__

n is a factor of the product; not the other way around.
