Hector is solving an equation with variables on both sides, and his work is shown below. Explain Hector mistake in his work, and
find the correct solution to the equation
-124 + 4 7/8x = -10 - 1/8x
-124 + 4. 6/8x = -9
4. 6/8x = 115
x = 24.22...

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Solution of the given equation</u>
- -124 + 4 7/8x = -10 - 1/8x
- 4 7/8x + 1/8x = -10 + 124 ⇒ added 1/8x + 124 to both sides
- 5x = 114
- x = 114/5
- x = 22.8
<u>Hector's mistakes</u>
- 4 7/8x on left hand side becomes 4 6/8x as 1/8x was subtracted
- -10 becomes -9 on right hand side for no reason
Answer:
x = 22.8
Hectors mistakes was subtracting 1/8x to both sides. Not sure how he got -9 but that was also another mistake.
Step-by-step explanation:
-124 + 4 7/8x = -10 - 1/8x
~Add 124 to both sides
4 7/8x = 114 - 1/8x
~Add 1/8x to both sides
5x = 114
~Divide 5 to both sides
x = 22.8
Best of Luck!
