Answer 2

Answer: SECON OPTION.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct form to apply thee Distributive property is the shown below:

$\frac{(-3)(-8)}{8}+\frac{(-3)(-16d)}{8}+2d=24$

Keeping on mind that:

(-)(-)=+

You obtain:

$\frac{24}{8}+\frac{48}{8}d+2d=24$

Simpliying, the have:

$3+6d+2d=24$

Add the like terms and solve for d:

$8d=24-3\\8d=21\\d=\frac{21}{8}$

Therefore, you can conclude that Celia made the first error in STEP 1. She should have also distributed $-\frac{3}{8}$ over $-16d$ to get $3+6d+2d=24$.
