Answer:

Frank, you're wrong!  x=x is a variable, where 12=12 is a specific number.  x can represent any number, even 12.  So Frank's answer is more general, whereas Sarah's answer is specific.  

Explanation:

2(x+12)+6=3(x+6)+(12-x)

2x+24+6=3x+18+12-x

2x+30=2x+30

2x+30-30=2x+30-30

2x=2x

x=x, or...

2x-2x+30=2x-2x+30

30=30

Answer:

option B. The best critique to explain why  Henrique should revise the paragraph is that he needs to add some descriptive language to make the story come alive. In literature a commonly used device is the one of descriptive language. Basically, descriptive language is used to create a picture of the scene/character in the reader's mind. Henrique's story is laying the order of events in a logical order but it is lacking the descriptive language that will give details to those events, making the reader to engage with the story line.

Hope this helps!
