First we rearrange by using the definition of between.
AB=x+10, BC=x+14, AC=22
Given that AB+BC=AC, we can solve for X
(X+10)+(X+14)=22
X+10+X+14=22
2X+24=22
2X+24-24=22-24
2X=-2
2X/2=-2/2
X= -1
6.4 is the answer that is the answer
Liza is wrong because...
Friday = 237
Saturday = 237 + 446
Both days = 920
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.
