Answer:

  • 0.5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the x be the number of hours after noon.

<u>We have the following equation:</u>

  • 14.83 + 0.12(x + 3) = 15.33 - 0.15x
  • 14.83 + 0.12x + 0.36 = 15.33 - 0.15x
  • 0.12x + 0.15x = 15.33 - 15.19
  • 0.27x = 0.14
  • x = 0.14/0.27
  • x ≈ 0.5

What is wrong with this solution?
Naily [24]

Answer:

They changed 5m into a positive when it should've stayed as a negative until you isolate the variable m at the end, making m actually equal -7.

Step-by-step explanation:

-5m - 16 = 19

-5m = 19 + 16

-5m = 35

m = 35/-5

m = -7
