Answer:

His mistake was he didn't multiply 3(4) when he was opening the parenthesis

Step-by-step explanation:

Correct solution:

12x – 5 = 3(x + 4)

Open parenthesis

12x – 5 = 3x + 12

Collect like terms

12x - 3x = 12 + 5

9x = 17

x = 17/9

x = 9 8/9

Incorrect solution:

12x – 5 = 3(x + 4)

His mistake was he didn't multiply 3(4) when he was opening the parenthesis

12x – 5 = 3x + 4

12x = 3x - 1

9x = -1
