Colton solved an equation incorrectly, as shown below:

Mathematics
1 answer:
Elza [17]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

He did not add 13 to 26.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Step 1: x − 13 = 26  

           Step 2: x = 26 − 13  

           Step 3: x = 39

To Find: Which statement best explains why Step 2 is incorrect in Colton’s solution?

Solution:

Correct steps

Step 1:x- 13 = 26

Step 2:x = 26+13

Step 3:x = 39

So, this concludes that He did not add 13 to 26 in step 2

So, Option C is correct.

Hence He did not add 13 to 26.

erik [133]

Answer:

x=1, y=8

Step-by-step explanation:

Plug y=8x into y=10x-4.

8x=10x-4

Subtract 10x from each side.

-2x=-2

Divide each side by -2.

x=1

Plug x=1 into y=8x.

y=8(1)

y=8

The Glitz Jewelry Kit contains round beads in 6 different colors plus 100 star-shaped beads.
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

False, it would actually be 106 beads. If this was a multiplication problem, that would also be false, because 6 times 100 is 600, not 350.

But let's attempt to make this statement true.

<u>First/Last step:</u><em> Find the missing beads.</em>

The missing beads are 144.

Why?

Because you must add 144 to reach 250, there is no other way but to multiply. In this case, because the key word is, "In all" we are adding.

A store has clearance items that have been marked down by 60% they having a sale, advertising an additional 30% off clearance it
bagirrra123 [75]

The original price is 100% of the price. If the price is marked 60% off, then you pay 40% of the original price.

An item costs x dollars.

With the 60% off discount, it now costs 40% of x, or 0.4x.

Now you apply a 30% discount.

For the second discount, consider the price 0.4x to be the new original price. If the price is now discounted 30%, you will pay 70% of the new original price.

Start with 0.4x.

Now calculate 70% of 0.4x.

70% of 0.4x = 0.70 * 0.4x = 0.28x

After applying the 60% discount and the 30% discount, the item that originally cost x now costs 0.28x. 0.28x is the same as 28% of x. The amount you pay is 28% of the original price.

Answer: 28%
