Antoinette solves the linear equation 3 (x minus 3) + 2 x + 9 = 2 x + 2 (x minus 1) using the steps shown below. Step 1: 3 x minus 3 + 2 x + 9 = 2 x + 2 (x minus 1) Step 2: 5 x + 6 = 4 x minus 1 Step 3: 5 x minus 4 x = negative 1 minus 6 Step 4: x = negative 7 She checks her solution by substituting –7 for x in the original equation. She determines that her answer is incorrect. Which best describes Antoinette's error? She distributed incorrectly. She incorrectly combined like terms. She incorrectly applied the addition and subtraction properties of equality. She incorrectly applied the multiplication and division properties of equality.

Juliana says that she can use the patterns of equivalent ratios in the multiplication table below to write an infinite number of ratios that are equivalent to 6: 10. which statement explains whether juliana is correct? she is correct because she can multiply 6 and 10 by any number to form an equivalent ratio. she is correct because 6: 10 can be written as 1: 2 and there are an infinite number of ratios for 1: 2. she is not correct because the multiplication table does not include multiples of 10. she is not correct because 6: 10 is equivalent to 3: 5 and there are only 9 ratios in the multiplication table that are equivalent to 3: 5.
