The steps below show the incomplete solution to find the value of x for the equation 6x – 2x – 5 = –6 + 21:

Step 1: 6x – 2x – 5 = –6 + 21

Step 2: 6x – 2x – 5 = 15

Step 3: 4x – 5 = 15Which of these is most likely the next step? (4 points)


4x = 10
4x = 3
4x = 45
4x = 20
6. Asher solved the equation below:

An equation is shown below:

5(2x - 8) + 15 = -15

Write the steps you will use to solve the equation and explain each step. (5 points)

Respuesta :

Question 1:

b + 8 = 13

b = 13 - 8

b = 5

Hence, the answer is A.

Question 2:

3x – 2 = 3x + 5

3x - 3x -2 = 5

-2 
≠ 5

Hence, the answer is A.

Question 3:

5q – 10 = 75

5q = 75 + 10 

5q = 85

q = [tex] \frac{85}{5} [/tex]

q = 17

Hence, the answer is A.

Question 4:

3(2t + 5) = 5t + 25

6t + 15 = 5t + 25

6t - 5t = 25 - 15

t = 10

Hence, the answer is C.

Question 5:

6x – 2x – 5 = –6 + 21

4x = 15 + 5

4x = 20

x = 
[tex] \frac{20}{4} [/tex]

x = 5

Hence, the answer is D.

Question 6:

4x = 64

x = 
[tex] \frac{64}{4}[/tex]

x = 16

Hence, Asher is wrong. You have to divide by 4 not subtract by 4.

Question 7:

5(2x - 8) + 15 = -15

10x - 40 + 15 = -15

10x - 25 = - 15

10x = -15 + 25

10x = 10

x = 
[tex] \frac{10}{10} [/tex]

x = 1
