Answer:
C. In step 2, Cindy should have multiplied both sides of the equation by 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
I'll go through the equation correctly, and then point out what would have happened.
3 = x/2 - 5
Add 5 to both sides. -5 and 5 cancel out.
8 = x/2
What Cindy should have done here is multiply by 2, not divide by 2. It is important to remember that you do the INVERSE operation to cancel out a number.
What would have happened here is that we have an extra step (though either way we still end up with x being 16.)
Correct Step 2:
Multiply both sides by 2. x/2 and 2x cancel out.
x = 16
Incorrect Step 2:
8/2 = (x/2)/2
4 = x/4
Multiply both sides by 4 (this would be the extra step!).
16 = x
First change the mixed number into a fraction greater than one 1 1/2= 3/2, then divide 2 into 3 which results in 1.5

Answer:
x = 3
y = 4
hey, I am not 100% sure of the certainty of my answers, I am using what I remember about that topic but I do not know if it is right or wrong, I hope I have helped you, I did what I could.
Step-by-step explanation:
-3x + 2y = 23
5x + 2y = -17
X solution:
(you cancel the y)
-3x = 23
5x = -17
(you combine all the values above with those below)
2x = 6
(solve the ecuation normaly)
x = 6/2 = 3
Y solution:
(you replace the x)
-3(3) + 2y = 23
5(3) + 2y = -17
-9 + 2y = 23
15 + 2y = -17
(you combine all the values above with those below)
6 + 4y = 6
(solve the ecuation normaly)
4y = 0
y = 4
(I do not really know if the answer here is 0 or 4 since when passing the 4 to divide it would be 0/4 and I do not understand very well how that is solved)
