A student said that x = 4 was not a solution to the question 3(x -6) = -8

Mathematics
1 answer:
Morgarella [4.7K]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3 (4 -6) = -8 is correct.  The next step is to combine 4 and -6, obtaining

3(-2)

and this 3(-2) should equal -6, which is not the same as -8.

3(4 - 6) = 12 - 18, which differs from the student's solution.  This is the reason for the wrong answer.
