He didn’t multiply by 4 first

Answer:

x = 8 (read below for Andre's mistakes)

Step-by-step explanation:

How to actually solve:

1/4(x+12) = 2

1/4(-4+12)=2

1/4(8)=2

How he solves:

1/4(x+12)=2

1/4(x+12)-12=2-12

1/4x=-10

x=-40

So apparently Andre's first mistake is he didn't use PEMDAS. His second mistake was instead of dividing by 4, he multiplied by 4.

Infinite! You can, for example, add -1 and 1 to the equation and make it equal. In x=5, you can have x=5+1-1. and it'd still be the same. To add on to it, you could do x+1-1=5+1-1, etc..

The equation w = 6m+4, relates how a dog's weight varies with age, where m represents its age in months, and the w represents it
natima [27]

Answer:

<h3>9 months</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the relationship of the dogs weight ang its age modeled by the equation;

w = 6m+4

m represents its age in months, and;

w represents its weight in pounds

Given

w = 58pounds

Required

number of months m before the dog weigh 58pounds;

Substitute w = 58 into the function and get m as shown;

w = 6m + 4

58 = 6m + 4

subtract 4 from both sides

58-4 = 6m+4-4

54 = 6m

divide both sides by 6

54/6 = 6m/6

9 = m

m = 9

Hence it will take 9months before the dog will weigh 58 pounds
