The error is in the second step they subtracted 3 from both sides but it was a 3x, which you can not do.
Correction.
9x+18+3x=1
12x+18=1
12x=-17
x=-17/12

Answer:

error is in second step.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is 9x + 18 + 3x = 1

Now we will solve this equation and compare it with the given answer.

9x + 18 + 3x = 1

12x + 18 = 1

12x = (-17)

x = (\frac{-17}{12})

Now we find the error is in second step.

Answer:

One of the angles in the triangle might be 50.

AND

The length of the third side must be 11cm or smaller.

Step-by-step explanation:

-The triangle might be an equilateral triangle (having all the same sides and angles). False, since the triangle sum theorem states that all angles inside of a triangle must add up to 180, so an equilateral triangle would need to have all three angles at 60 degrees.

-One of the angles in the triangle must be 120 (false; it can be anything above 90, which is not only 120)

-The length of the third side must be 11cm or smaller. (True, Triangle Inequality Theorem)

-One of the angles in the triangle might be 50 (possibly, so very much true)

1. Hoover Dam spans the Colorado
Alona [7]

BEST estimate of this  amount is 2(10^{7}) . Correct option A. 2 x 10^7 .

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Here we have , Hoover Dam spans the Colorado  River on the Nevada-Arizona state  line. For its construction, the federal  government purchased 21,670,000  pounds of gates and valves. We need to find BEST estimate of this  amount . Let's find out:

21,670,000  pounds

⇒ 21,670,000  pounds

⇒ 21,670,000

⇒ 2167(10^{4})

⇒ 2.167(10^{3})(10^{4})

⇒ 2.167(10^{3+4})

⇒ 2.167(10^{7})

Now, Rounding of 2.167 we get 2  ,So

⇒ 2(10^{7})

Hence ,  BEST estimate of this  amount is 2(10^{7}) . Correct option A. 2 x 10^7 .
