Answer:
His error is adding 10 and 2/3 before multiplying by a(age of the tree)
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of 10 and two-thirds of that tree's age, in years, is equal to 50.
Correct equation
Sum = addition (+)
two-thirds = 2/3
The tree's age = a
10 + 2/3a = 50
2/3a = 50 - 10
2/3a = 40
a = 40 ÷ 2/3
= 40 × 3/2
= 60
a = 60 years
Javier writes the equation
(10 + two-thirds) a = 50
(10 + 2/3)a = 50
(30+2/3)a = 50
32/3a = 50
a = 50 ÷ 32/3
= 50 × 3/32
= 150/32
a = 150/32
His error is adding 10 and 2/3 before multiplying by a(age of the tree)

"<span>What is the general process for solving an equation with one variable?"...
Typically when solving an equation with one variable, your objective is to
isolate the variable on one side of the equation. This can be done adding/subtracting number to cancel them out on one side. You can also multiply/divide coefficients in order to isolate a variable.
Example:</span>

<span>Add
-4 to both sides to isolate the variable.
</span>

<span>
Simplify.
</span>

Divide both sides by
2 to isolate the variable on one side.


Hope this helps.

The correct answer is 3n-1
Answer:
$19,260
Step-by-step explanation:
1 year = 12 months
5 × 12 = 60
5 years = 60 months
$321 × 60 = $19,260
