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 :)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) ABCD is a trapezium. AB ║ CD

∠ADC + ∠DAB  = 180°  { Co interior angles}

110° + ∠DAB = 180

         ∠DAB = 180 -110

∠DAB = 70°

2) Sum of all angles of trapezium = 360°

∠A + ∠B + ∠DCB + ∠D = 360

70° + 50° + ∠DCB + 110° = 360

                 230 + ∠DCB = 360

                            ∠DCB = 360 - 230

∠DCB = 130°

3) For finding the height, use Pythagorean theorem

height² + base² = hypotenuse²

      height² + 6² = 10²

      height² + 36 =100

               height² = 100 - 36

              height² = 64

               height = √64

height = 8 m

4) a = AB = x m

  b = 9 m

h = height = 8 m

Area of trapezium = 120 m²

\frac{(a+b)*h}{2}\\\\  = 120

\frac{(x+9)*8}{2} =120\\\\\\(x +9)*4 = 120

x + 9 = 120/4

x + 9 = 30

    x = 30 - 9

x = 21 m

AB = 21m

The number 12,300 is written ______. as a coefficient in standard form in scientific notation
dexar [7]
The number 12,300 is written 1.23 x 10⁴ as a scientific notation. It's coefficient is 1.23; base is 10⁴ in exponent form.

Scientific notation is a method developed by scientists to shorten the number that expresses a very large number. The scientific notation is based on powers of the base number 10.

Scientific notation has two numbers: coefficient and base. The coefficient must be greater than or equal to 1 and less than 10. The base is always 10 written in exponent form.

12,300 as coefficient in standard form in scientific notation.

1) put decimal after the first digit and drop the zeros. from 12,300 to 1.23 this is the coefficient.

2) to find the exponent, count the number of places from decimal to the end of the number.
1.2300 ; there are 4 places

So the scientific notation is 1.23 x 10⁴

If it took 8 hours to clean 12 houses how many houses could be cleaned in 12 hours
Lubov Fominskaja [6]
It takes 8 hours to clean 12 houses so that’s 8/12 to find how many hours it take to clean one house, 8/12 is equal 2/3 . So it takes 2/3 of an hour to clean one house. 2/3 times 12 equals 8. So you want to find how many houses you can clean in 12 hours. The equation is 12= 2/3x , x=18. The answer is 18 houses. Check the work cus I sure didn’t lol, hope this helps
