Answer:
She didn't take the LCM, made an error while cross multiplying
x = -6
Step-by-step explanation:
a)she didn't take the LCM before cross multiplying.
Also, didn't cross multiply correctly
b) 1 -2/(x-2) = (x+1)/(x+2)
1 - 2/(x-2) = (x+2-1)/(x+2)
1 - 2/(x-2) = 1 - 1/(x+2)
1 - 2/(x-2) = 1 - 1/(x+2)
-2(x+2) = -1(x-2)
-2x-4 = -x+2
x = -6
Hi
1.If Mrs.Walters drives 360 miles on 25 gallons of gas , she drives 14.4 miles on 1 gallon of gas .
Work; I made a proportion , but you can just divide 360 and 25 .
x=14.4 miles
If Mr.Walters drives 480 miles on 32 gallons of gas , he drives 15.06 miles on 1 gallon of gas .
x=15.06 miles
2. Mr.Walter because he drives more miles with a gallon .
Work; 15.06 miles is greater than 14.4 miles.
Hope it helps and have a wonderful day.
