Hello,
I think the answer is D) 102.92
Hope this helps!!!! :)
Answer:
- Andre subtracted 3x from both sides
- Diego subtracted 2x from both sides
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Andre</u>
Comparing the result of Andre's work with the original, we see that the "3x" term on the right is missing, and the x-term on the left is 3x less than it was. It is clear that Andre subtracted 3x from both sides of the equation.
__
<u>Diego</u>
Comparing the result of Diego's work with the original, we see that the "2x" term on the left is missing, and the x-term on the right is 2x less than it was. It is clear that Diego subtracted 2x from both sides of the equation.

<em>Comment on their work</em>
IMO, Diego has the right idea, as his result leaves the x-term with a positive coefficient. He can add 8 and he's finished, having found that x=14.
Andre can subtract 6 to isolate the variable term, and that will give him -x=-14. This requires another step to get to x=14. Sometimes minus signs get lost, so this would not be my preferred sequence of steps.
As a rule, I like to add the opposite of the variable term with the least (most negative) coefficient. This results in the variable having a positive coefficient, making errors easier to avoid.
Answer: 1234567901
/100000000000
Step-by-step explanation:
Convert the decimal number to a fraction by placing the decimal number over a power of ten. Since there are 11 numbers to the right of the decimal point, place the decimal number over 10
∧11
(
100000000000
)
. Next, add the whole number to the left of the decimal.
