Mai solved the equation below incorrectly. Identify Mai's error.

1 answer:

7 0

3(x+4)-10 = 1/10 (4x+16)
3x+12-10 = 1/10*2 (2x+8)
3x+2 = 1/5* (2x+8)
3x+2 = 2/5x + 8/5
15x+10 = 2x+8
15x-2x=8-10
13x = -2
x = -2/13
She made her mistake when she forgot about the 1/10 and didn’t include it

Points A, B, and C are collinear. Point B is between A and C. Solve for x if AC = 3x + 3, BC = 3, and AB = 2x + 2.

Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

x=2.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that points A, B, and C are collinear. Point B is between A and C.

Using segment addition property, we get

$AC=AB+BC$

It is given that AC = 3x + 3, BC = 3, and AB = 2x + 2.

$3x+3=(2x+2)+3$

$3x+3=2x+5$

Isolate variable terms.

$3x-2x=5-3$

$x=2$

Therefore, the value of x is 2.

How is solving an inequality like solving an equation? How is it different?

Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

The only difference is: If you multiply or divide both sides of an equation by the same negative number, the equation remains the same, but If you multiply or divide both sides of an inequality by the same negative number, the inequality reverses.
