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 :)

Which fraction is in reduced form?
kompoz [17]

Answer:

  C  5/13

Step-by-step explanation:

A fraction is written in reduced form if there are no common factors in the numerator and denominator. Since you know your multiplication tables, you can easily identify the common factors:

  A 20 = 5·4, so 4 is a common factor 4/(4·5) = 1/5

  B 6 = 2·3, 9 = 3·3, so 3 is a common factor (2·3)/(3·3) = 2/3

  C 13 is not a multiple of the prime number 5, so there are no common factors. 5/13 is a reduced fraction

  D 14 = 2·7, 21 = 3·7, so 7 is a common factor (2·7)/(3·7) = 2/3

A taxi company charges passengers $2.00 for a ride, no matter how long the ride is, and an additional $0.20 for each mile travel
tiny-mole [99]

The answer will be $2.20. Because they only traveled one mile, which is 20 cents. Also the original cost before they even started driving was $2.00.
