Answer:
Her final answer should have been x = 1/2.
Step-by-step explanation:
Her 2 errors were that she didn't distribute the 2x to both 4 and -17 and that she made the 13 positive instead of negative when she added 4 and -17 together.
Correct solution:
8(x-3)+7=2x(4-17)
8x-24+7=8x-34x
-17=-34x
The negatives on both sides cancel each other out
x = 1/2
Answer: 100
Step-by-step explanation:
3 x 25 = 75
4 x 25 = 100
The answer to the question is that the surface area is 48
y = −2x + 1
4x + 2y = −1
Replace Y in the second equation with the value of Y in the first one.
4x + 2(-2x +1) = -1
Distributive Property:
4x + -4x + 2 = -1
Combine like terms:
2 = -1 which is not true, so there are no solutions.
