Eloise made these steps well:
Square root of negative 2x plus 1 - 3 = x
Square root of negative 2x plus 1 - 3 + 3 = x + 3
The error comes in the next step:
Square root of negative 2x plus 1 = x + 3
Square root of negative 2x plus 1 -1 = x + 3 - 1
Square root of negative 2x = x + 2
the number one is inside the root, therefore they can not be subtracted.
answer
error in the step:
Square root of negative 2x = x + 2

Answer:
b
Step-by-step explanation:
The correct answer is: 9 + c = 12
Further explanation:
Given
c = number of babies whose eyes are closed
So,
If the total number of babies are 12 then the sum of babies with eyes closed and eyes opened should be equal to 12.
As c is the number of babies with eyes closed and 9 is the number of babies with eyes opened then,

The equation can be used to find the number of babies whose eyes are open

Three babies have their eyes closed in the photograph.
