Answer:

In Step 2, 90 should be multiplied by the quantity 10 – 12, not by 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided expression.

90\cdot x-90\cdot 12 when x=10

Solve the above expression as shown:

Step 1:

90\cdot x-90\cdot 12=90(x-12)

Step 2: Substitute x=10.

90\cdot x-90\cdot 12=90(10-12)

Step 3: Open the parenthesis.

90\cdot x-90\cdot 12=900-1080

Step 4: Simplify

90\cdot x-90\cdot 12=-180

From the above calculation we can say that the error is:

In Step 2, 90 should be multiplied by the quantity 10 – 12, not by 10.
