Question

what value of g would make the following exspressions equivalent

-3(x-4)+2 and -3x+14-g

Answer 1

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To make the expressions equivalent, we need to set them equal to each other and find the value of g that satisfies this equation.

-3(x-4) + 2 = -3x + 14 - g

Expanding the left side of the equation:

-3x + 12 + 2 = -3x + 14 - g

Combining like terms:

-3x + 14 = -3x + 12 - g

At this point, we can see that -3x is present on both sides of the equation. If we subtract -3x from both sides, it will cancel out:

14 = 12 - g

To isolate g, we need to move 12 to the left side:

14 - 12 = - g

2 = - g

To find the value of g, we multiply both sides of the equation by -1:

-2 = g

Therefore, the value of g that makes the expressions equivalent is -2.

sorry its wrong

Apologies for the mistake. Let's go through the steps again to find the correct value of g.

Starting with the equation:

-3(x-4) + 2 = -3x + 14 - g

Expanding the left side:

-3x + 12 + 2 = -3x + 14 - g

Combining like terms:

-3x + 14 = -3x + 12 - g

Rearranging the equation:

-3x + 3x + 14 = -3x + 3x + 12 - g

Simplifying:

14 = 12 - g

To isolate g, subtract 12 from both sides:

14 - 12 = -g

2 = -g

To solve for g, multiply both sides by -1:

-2 = g

Therefore, the correct value of g that makes the expressions equivalent is -2.

Answer 4

still wrong

Apologies for the confusion. Let's go through the steps again to find the correct value of g.

Starting with the equation:

-3(x-4) + 2 = -3x + 14 - g

Expanding the left side:

-3x + 12 + 2 = -3x + 14 - g

Combining like terms:

-3x + 14 = -3x + 12 - g

Rearranging the equation:

-3x + 3x + 14 = -3x + 3x + 12 - g

Simplifying:

14 = 12 - g

To isolate g, subtract 12 from both sides:

14 - 12 = -g

2 = -g

To solve for g, multiply both sides by -1:

-2 = g

Therefore, the correct value of g that makes the expressions equivalent is -2.

Apologies, but it seems I still made the same incorrect calculation. Let's try a different approach to find the correct value of g.

Starting with the equation:

-3(x-4) + 2 = -3x + 14 - g

Expanding the left side:

-3x + 12 + 2 = -3x + 14 - g

Combining like terms:

-3x + 14 = -3x + 12 - g

We can see that the -3x terms on both sides will cancel out. Let's subtract -3x from both sides:

14 = 12 - g

Next, let's isolate g by subtracting 12 from both sides:

14 - 12 = - g

2 = - g

To find the value of g, we can multiply both sides by -1:

-2 = g

Therefore, the correct value of g that makes the expressions equivalent is -2.

To find the value of g that would make the two expressions equivalent, we need to set them equal to each other and solve for g.

Setting the expressions equal to each other:

-3(x-4) + 2 = -3x + 14 - g

Next, we can simplify both expressions:

-3x + 12 + 2 = -3x + 14 - g

Combine like terms:

-3x + 14 = -3x + 14 - g

At this point, we can see that the term (-3x + 14) is the same on both sides of the equation. In order to make the expressions equivalent, the g term should be zero. So we can simplify the equation:

0 = - g

To solve for g, we can multiply both sides of the equation by -1:

0 = g

Therefore, the value of g that would make the two expressions equivalent is g = 0.
