gwendolyn is asked to solve the equation -43 – 3) = 20. she sh
-4(x - 3) = 20
- 4x + 12 = 20
- 4x = 32
x = -8
unfortunately, gwendolyn's work is flawed. explain the flaw in gwendolyns work

-4x + 12 = 20 is incorrect. she added 12 to 20 instead of subtracting 12 from both sides.

Step-by-step explanation:

It should have been, write problem

-4(x - 3) = 20

Use distributive property.

-4x + 12 = 20

subtract 12 from each side

-4x =8

divide each side by -4

x = -2

80π/3 or about 83.775

step-by-step explanation:

since a cone is 1/3 of a cylinder, we need to find the base's area. since area = πr^2, we get 16π. then, multiplying this by 5, we get 80π. dividing by 3, since the cone's volume is 1/3 of that of a cylinder's, we get 80π/3.

hope this !
