Jackson solved the problem 3x-8=2(2x-7) using the following steps:
STEP 1: Use Distributive Property to get 3x-8=4x-14
STEP 2: Use Addition Property of Equality to get 3x = 4x-14+8
STEP 3: Combine Like Terms to get 3x = 4x-6
STEP 4: Use Subtraction Property of Equality to get 3x-4x= -6
STEP 5: Combine Like Terms to get (-x)=-6
What is the last step?
A.
Use Property of Equality to get x= (-6)
B.
Divide both sides by -1 to get x=6
C.
Divide both sides by -1 to get x= (-6)
D.
Use Multiplication Property of Equality to get x=6
C. Divide both sides by -1 to get x= (-6)
This is a
relationship. The y-intercept is
and the slope is
. The equation of the line is slope-intercept form is
.
I'm sorry, but it seems like there are missing values in your question. Can you please provide the missing values for the y-intercept, slope, and the equation of the line in slope-intercept form?
The last step is:
B. Divide both sides by -1 to get x=6
The last step is to divide both sides of the equation by -1 to solve for x. The correct answer is:
C. Divide both sides by -1 to get x = (-6)
