The first thing you should do is solve the equation yourself.
1) Distribute the 2.
6x + 4 = 2x – 16
2) Next, you'll want to get the x's on one side. So add -2x to both sides.
6x + 4 + -2x = 2x + -2x - 16
4x + 4 = -16
3) Now subtract 4 from both sides
4x + 4 – 4 = -16 – 4
4x = -12
4) Finally, divide both sides by 4
4x/4 = -12/4
x = –3
To solve this problem all you need to do is look back out you work, and figure out the correct solution. The answer the question is The student made an error in Step 1.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
-- total
--- defective
--- selected
Required
The probability of rejecting the batch
This means that at least one of the selected piece is defected.
So, we first calculate the probability that all the selected piece are accepted.
So, we have:
The denominator decreases by 1 because it is a probability without replacement; 180 is subtracted from the numerator to represent the number of non-defective CDs
So, we have:
Using the complement rule, the probability that the batch will be rejected is:
Answer: x = 35
Explanation: In this problem, notice that D is being divided by 5,
so to get D by itself, we need to multiply both sides of the equation by 5.
Notice that on the left side, the 5 and 5 cancel
each other out, so we are just left with D.
On the right side, we have (7)(5) which is 35.
So x = 35.
Finally, remember that we can check our answer
by plugging a 35 back into the original equation.
So we have .
Since this is a true statement, we know that our answer is correct, x = 35.
