If you would like to know in which step did the student first make an error and what is the correct step, you can calculate this using the following steps:

3(2x - 4) = 8 + 2x + 6
6x - 12 = 8 + 2x + 6
6x - 12 = 14 + 2x ... Step 2
6x - 2x = 14 + 12
4x = 26
x = 26/4 = 13/2

The correct result would be Step 2; <span>6x - 12 = 14 + 2x.</span>

2. A man buys eggs at 55kobo a score . he finds that 10% of the eggs are unsellable but sells the rest at 60kobo a dozen .find i
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

Percentage Profit is 63.63%

Step-by-step explanation:

The man buys 440 eggs at 55 pence a score

i.e. he buys 20 eggs for 55 pence

He buys 1 egg for 55/20 = 2.75 pence

Therefore, he buys 440 eggs for = 440 × 2.75 = 1210 pence

10% eggs are unsaleable

thus he sold = 440 - 440 × 10/100 = 440 - 44 = 396 eggs

Eggs sold in dozen = 396/12 = 33

He sold 1 dozen for = 60 pence

Thus, he sold 33 dozen for = 33 × 60 = 1980 pence

Profit = 1980 - 1210 = 770 pence

% Profit = (770/1210) × 100 = 63.63%

(hope this helps can i plz have brainlist :D hehe)
