What was the error in this equation?

Mathematics
1 answer:
PtichkaEL [24]2 years ago
3 0

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.

Jeff is four years less than twice his nephew's
ira [324]

Answer:

His nephew would be 11.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you should model the word problem into an equation. This gives you the equation 18=2x-4. Then, you add 4 to both sides of the equation, getting 22=2x. Then, you divide both sides by two, which equals 11, which shows that his nephew is 11 years old. Hope this helped!

Geoff must mentally multiply –5 × 0.75 × 20. Which shows how Geoff could use the associative and commutative properties to make
joja [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

–5 × 0.75 × 20 could be rewritten (applying the associative property) as –5 × (0.75 × 20).  I chose this configuration because 0.75 * 20 is 15.  Next, evaluate -5(15).  This is -75.  This matches Answer D.
