We have been given the steps to solve the equation as
Step 1: 2x = 18
Step 2: x = 18 − 2
Step 3: x = 16
There is an error in step 2.
We have 
x is in multiplication with 2. So in order to get rid of 2 from the left hand side, we perform opposite operation of multiplication i.e. division.
So we must divide both sides by 2.
Therefore, A is the correct option.
A) She did not divide 18 by 2.
Ok sure and one more thing are you smart at geometry like 100% smart
Answer:
The balance after four years is $1129.27
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for compound interest, including principal sum, is 
- A = the future value of the investment/loan, including interest
- P = the principal investment amount (the initial deposit or loan amount)
- r = the annual interest rate (decimal)
- n = the number of times that interest is compounded per unit t
- t = the time the money is invested or borrowed for
∵ $800 is deposited in an account
∴ P = 800
∵ The account pays 9% annual interest
∴ r = 9% = 9 ÷ 100 = 0.09
∵ The interest is compounded annually
∴ n = 1
∵ The time is 4 years
∴ t = 4
- Substitute the values of P, r, n, and t in the formula above
∵ 
∴ 
∴ A = 1129.265
∴ The balance after four years is $1129.27
