Question

Holly finds that (11m – 13n + 6mn) – (10m – 7n + 3mn) = m – 20n + 9mn. What error did Holly make?

Answer 1

Answer:

she added 11 plus 10 wrong

Step-by-step explanation:

11 plus 10 = 21

Answer 2

Answer: A ) She only used the additive inverse of 10m when combining like terms .

Step-by-step explanation:

Holly only used the additive inverse of 10m when combining like terms. The equality is erroneous because the equation was evaluated well. The calculations should be as follows:

11m -13n + 6mn - 10m + 7n - 3mn = 1m - 6n +3mn

She should have subtracted 13n and 7n then take the negative value. Also, subtract 6mn and 3mn.
