11*57+X(1+2+3+.....+56)
=11*57+X(1+56)*56/2
=627+1596X
=19779
X=(19779-627)/1596=12
Your answer is C
Liz attempted to factor 36. Since 36 = 3*12 and not 3+12, this is not the way to go. In stead of factoring 36, she should have split it into a friendly sum, like 36=30+6.
Then Step 1 should have been 27(6+30).
yea they're equivalent cause to solve the second equation sqrt of x+1 plus 3 equals 8 you must subtract 3 from both sides and when you do that you get sqrt of x+1=5 and thats the same as the first equation
