Answer:
B. The student did not properly apply the addition property to isolate x
Explanation:
When given an equation to solve, always remember that when you do an external operation (add/subtract/multiply a term or divide by a term) on one side of the equation, the same operation should be applied on the other side in order to maintain the equality of the equation.
Now, let's take a look on the steps done:
Step 1:
3 = 2 - x
Step 2:
3 = 2 - 2 - x
Step 3:
3 = -x
Now, note n step 2, the student wanted to get rid of the 2 next to the x, therefore, he subtracted 2. However, the student did not subtract the 2 from the other side of the equation. Since we're taking addition (we're adding a -2), therefore, the student incorrectly applied the addition property to isolate the x.
The correct steps would be as follows:
Step 1:
3 = 2 - x
Step 2:
3 - 2 = 2 - 2 - x
Step 3:
1 = - x
Hope this helps :)

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
See below
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Part A</u>
A vertical stretch takes place when
given that 
<u>Part B</u>
A vertical compression takes place when
given that 
<u>Part C</u>
A vertical stretch is different than a horizontal compression:
- In a vertical stretch, the input stays the same, but the output is multiplied by the scale factor
- In a horizontal compression, the output stays the same, but the input is multiplied by the scale factor
<u>Part D</u>
A reflection across the x-axis means that the output, our y-variable, is the opposite sign. This means that all values of
must be negative such that
as mentioned in parts A and B. Also, in part C, since our scale factor is negative, the output is the only one being multiplied by the scale factor.
The answer is $17.75, though usually the taxi company will pay for gas that the driver uses.
