8 + 12 = 20

The difference must be 4, so we subtract 8 from 12

12- 8 = 4

What was the error in this equation?
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

The error is the solution.

The solution is all real numbers, or infinite amount of solutions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write equation

-4(2n - 3) = 12 - 8n

Step 2: Solve for <em>n</em>

  1. <u>Distribute -4:</u> -8n + 12 = 12 - 8n
  2. <u>Subtract 12 on both sides:</u> -8n = -8n
  3. <u>Add 8n to both sides:</u> 0 = 0

Here we see that <em>n</em> can equal any number. If you plug in any number <em>n</em>, it will render the equation true. Therefore, our solution is n = infinite amount of solutions.

n = 0 is only slightly correct. 0 does work as the solution, but there are solutions as well.
