Tyler is using the distributive property on the expression 9 - 4(5x – 6). Here is his
work:
9 - 4(5x - 6)
9+(-4)(5x +-6)
9 +-20x +-6
3 – 20x
Mai thinks Tyler's answer is incorrect. She says, “If expressions are equivalent then
they are equal for any value of the variable. Why don't you try to substitute the same
value for x in all the equations and see where they are not equal?”
a. Find the step where Tyler made an error.
b. Explain what he did wrong.
c. Correct Tyler's work.

Alicense plate is to consist of 44 digits followed by 55 uppercase letters. determine the number of different license plates possible if the first and second digits must be? odd, and repetition is not permitted.

Astudent solves the equation for v. start with the original equation. use the square root property. use the division property of equality. use the multiplication property of equality. simplify. which statement explains how to correct the error that was made? the square root property must be applied after all other properties of equality are applied. the multiplication property of equality should have been applied before the division property of equality. the division property of equality should have been applied to move the fraction to the other side of the equation. the square root property should have been applied to both complete sides of the equation instead of to select variables.

If a + b = 28 and a - b = 10, then b =?
