Marcel made an error when he used the distributive property to solve the problem shown. Which sentence describes the error? In S

tep 2, 90 should be multiplied by the quantity 10 – 12, not by 10. 10 was substituted for x at the wrong step. In Step 1, the expression should be x(90 – 12) not 90(x– 12). There should be no parentheses in Step 1. It should be 90 • x – 12.

The picture with the complete question is attached below :

Answer:

In Step 2, 90 should be multiplied by the quantity 10 – 12, not by 10

Step-by-step explanation:

90 * x - 90 * 12 = 90(x - 12)

From the question, x = 10

Hence,

90(10 - 12)

(90* 10) - (90 * 12) - - - > correct evaluation

900 - 1080

= - 180

Hence, both values in the bracket, that is 10 and - 12 should be multiplied by 90. Not just 10 alone.

A salesperson's weekly paycheck is 10% more than a second salesperson's paycheck. The two paychecks total $1075. Find the amount
Ksivusya [100]
Originally without the 10% extra, both have 100%. since the question stated that the first salesperson have 10% more, the percentage of his paycheck will be a total of 110%. on the other hand, the second salesperson will have only 100%. the question then stated that when both oaychecks are added together, it will give a total of $1075.

110% + 100% represents $1075
210% represents $1075

so now you need to find what is 1 %
1% represents $(1075/210)

the first salesperson have 110%, so you
(1075/210) × 110% = $563. 0952381
round off to the nearest cent so it will become $563.10
the first salesperson paycheck is $563.10

the second salesperson paycheck 100%. so you....
(1075/210) × 100% = $511.9047619
=$511.90
therefore the second salesperson paycheck is $511.90.
