denpristay [2]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The correct option is D.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is

-3x+4=5x-6

According to the addition property of equality a=b and a+c=b+c are equivalent equations.

Use addition property of equality, add 3x on both the sides.

-3x+4+3x=5x-6+3x

4=8x-6

Therefore Sam's work is incorrect because he make calculation mistake.

According to the subtraction property of equality a=b and a-c=b-c are equivalent equations.

Use subtraction property of equality, subtract 5x from both the sides.

-3x+4-5x=5x-6-5x

-8x+4=-6

Therefore Roy's work is correct because he used subtraction property.

Option D is correct.

Julio believes that the quotient of 6 divided by 1/2 = 3. Explain Julios error and tell how to find the correct answer.
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

it can be written as 6/1 divided by 1/2

then you'll use the keep, switch, flip method. keep 6/1, switch division to multiplication, and flip 1/2 to become 2/1 or 2

now your equation is 6 x 2 = 12

Julio did 6 divided by 2. which could've been fixed if he changed the division sign to multiplication and multiplied
