<u>Answer:</u> The value of x will be 2.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
To calculate the value of 'x' or solve for x, we need to isolate x from 8.
In the equation, 8 is in addition with 'x' so for isolating it, we need to apply the reverse operation of addition.
Reverse operation of addition is subtraction.
We need to subtract 8 from both sides of the equation, we get:

By doing this, we get the value of 'x' as 2.
Error done by Alice was that she added 8 and it did not led to the isolation of 'x'.
Answer:
63
Step-by-step explanation:
In these 9 bags, each must have 7 gumdrops. So, we can add 7 nine times to itself. 7 + 7 + 7 + 7 + ... = 63
OR HERE'S A FASTER WAY *WINK WINK*
Instead of doing repeated addition, we can <u>multiply</u> 7 and 9 together.
<u>Why multiply?</u>
We're going to multiply 7 x 9 so that it means seven gumdrops for <em>each</em> of nine bags.
7 x 9 = 63.
To the nearest whole number it would be 35
