Answer:

Bella made an error in step 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is:

-3x-30=5x+18

Rearranging the like terms, we get

⇒-3x-5x=18+30

⇒-8x=48

⇒x=-6

Thus, the correct value of x is -6.

Now, Bella made a mistake in her solution as:

-3x-30=5x+18

⇒−3x − 30 − 3x = 5x + 18 − 3x  (she should add 3x on both sides rather than subtracting)

⇒− 30 = 2x + 18

⇒−30 − 18 = 2x + 18 −18

⇒− 48= 2x

⇒x=-24

For the second,
In the first step, instead of adding 3x for both sides, they subtract 3x instead.

PLEASE HELP ME! I really need help y'all...
ikadub [295]

just a quick clarification, tis usually -4.9 and that's a rounded number to reflect earth's gravity on an object in motion, but -5 is close enough :)

\bf ~~~~~~\textit{initial velocity in meters} \\\\ h(t) = -4.9t^2+v_ot+h_o \quad \begin{cases} v_o=\textit{initial velocity}\\ \qquad \textit{of the object}\\ h_o=\textit{initial height}\\ \qquad \textit{of the object}\\ h=\textit{object's height}\\ \qquad \textit{at "t" seconds} \end{cases} \\\\[-0.35em] \rule{34em}{0.25pt}

\bf h(x)=-5(\stackrel{\mathbb{F~O~I~L}}{x^2-8x+16})+180\implies h(x)=-5x^2+40x-80+180 \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ ~\hfill h(x)=-5x^2+\stackrel{\stackrel{v_o}{\downarrow }}{40} x+\stackrel{\stackrel{h_o}{\downarrow }}{\boxed{100}}~\hfill
