Answer:
Option B.
Step-by-step explanation:
The given equations is
[tex]7.4x+4.1(2x-4)=-2.3(x-6)-21.6[/tex]
The correct steps to solve the above equation are
1. Using distributive property, we get
[tex]7.4x+8.2x-16.4=-2.3x+13.8-21.6[/tex]
2. Combining like terms, we get
[tex]15.6x-16.4=-2.3x-7.8[/tex]
3. Using addition property of equality, add 2.3x on both sides.
[tex]17.9x-16.4=-7.8[/tex]
4. Using addition property of equality, add 16.4 on both sides.
[tex]17.9x=8.6[/tex]
5. Using division property of equality, divide both sides by 17.9.
[tex]x\approx 0.48[/tex]
In step 2, the like terms were not combined properly on the right side of the equation.
[tex]13.8-21.6=-7.8\neq 35.4[/tex]
Therefore, the correct option is B.
Answer:
The correct answer is b. In step 2, the like terms were not combined properly on the right side of the equation.
