If carlos did some work and got 3x + 2x - 6 = 24 what mistake did he make

Carlos made the mistake that he did not combine like terms (3 x and 2 x) properly and did not use addition property of equality.

Step-by-step explanation:

Carlos did the work as 3 x + 2 x - 6 = 24

We need to find his mistake that he made in above given.

Here, he did not add the like terms (3 x and 2 x)

             3 x + 2 x = 5 x

Therefore, his work should be

             5 x  - 6 = 24

Also, he did not use addition property of equality. It means the equation remains same even though the same number gets added on both sides. It would be

                          5 x  - 6 = 24

                                 + 6 = + 6

                          -----------------------

                           5 x = 30

Dividing 30 by 5, we get answer as '6'. Hence,

                            = 6

So, stated the above two are the mistakes found in carlos work.
