Andre tried to solve the equation 1/4(x+12)=2 what was his mistake?

Mathematics

GarryVolchara [31]3 years ago
8 0

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 1/4(x + 12)=2 - first isolate X'

         - 12 -12

2. 1/4(x) = -10  - 1/4  since its a fraction, you'll have to subtract not divide

-1/4    - 1/4

3. x = -10.25

Andre did the first step correctly, but on the second step he just divided 1.4 by -10, instead of subtract 1/4 from both sides.

What is the solution set of |-x|=-10?
Airida [17]
There is no solution. Because the absolute value function finds the distance between the number and 0. And length is never negative.

So, |-x| = -10 has no solution.

do you think that a negative sign affects whether or not a number is rational number? Use -8/5 an example.
lina2011 [118]

-8/5 is a rational number because in order to be a rational number it must be able to be written as a fraction. -8/5 is a fraction; therefore, the negative does not affect it.
