Answer:
Her error was multiplying -3 and -4 which gives +12 but she wrote -12 instead
Step-by-step explanation:
Mariana workings:
-3(2x - 4) = -12
-6x - 12 = -12
Her error was multiplying -3 and -4 which gives +12 but she wrote -12 instead
-6x = 0
x=0
Correct workings:
-3(2x - 4) = -12
-6x + 12 = - 12
-6x = -12 - 12
-6x = -24
x = -24/-6
x = 4
Answer: 9/4
Step-by-step explanation: Think of
as
.
Now, we can change 4⁻¹ to 4¹ by moving it to the denominator and
we can change 9⁻¹ to 9¹ by moving it to the numerator.
So we have 9¹/4¹ which simplifies to 9/4.
-10 and 2
-10 x 2 = -20
-10 + 2 = -8
