In the equation 6x − 2 = −4x + 2, Spencer claims that the first step is to add 4x to both sides. Jeremiah claims that the first

step is to subtract 6x from both sides. Who is correct? Explain

Sample Response: Both are correct. As long as inverse operations and the properties of equality are used properly, both methods will generate the same solution. They both isolate the variable on one side of the equation.

6x - 2 = -4x + 2
Spencer: 6x - 2 = -4x + 2       /+4x6x - 2 + 4x = -4x + 2 + 4x10x - 2 = 2
Jeremiah:6x - 2 = -4x + 2      /-6x6x - 2 - 6x = -4x + 2 - 6x-2 = -10x + 2
They both are correct. But in Jeremiah's version of solving the equation, we would have to multiply equation by -1, which we don't have to do in the Spencer's version.

What is the answer??
Paha777 [63]

Answer:

D) 39

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a couple of steps to this. First, note that you must plug in the given number that replaces x into the right side's x. After you find the answers, you must then subtract both answers to get your result.

First step, find g(8):

g(x) = 3x - 2

When x = 8,

g(8) = 3(8) - 2

Remember to follow PEMDAS, the order of operations. First, multiply, then subtract:

g(8) = (3 * 8) - 2

g(8) = (24) - 2

g(8) = 22

Next step, find g(-5):

g(x) = 3x - 2

g(-5) = 3(-5) - 2

g(-5) = (3 * -5) - 2

g(-5) = (-15) - 2

g(-5) = -17

Note that you are subtracting both numbers. When there are two negative signs directly next to each other, it becomes a positive:

22 - (-17) = 22 + 17 = 39

D) 39 is your answer.
