The work of a student to solve the equation 2(3x − 4) = 8 + 2x + 4 is shown below: Step 1: 2(3x − 4) = 8 + 2x + 4
Step 2: 5x − 6 = 12 + 2x
Step 3: 5x − 2x = 12 + 6
Step 4: 3x = 18
Step 5: x = 6

In which step did the student first make an error and what is the correct step?

Step 2; 6x − 6 = 2(6 + x + 2)
Step 2; 6x − 8 = 12 + 2x
Step 3; 5x − 2x = 12 − 6
Step 3; 5x + 2x = 12 + 6

step 2; 6x-8=12+2x; she added instead of multiplying

the answer is a

step-by-step explanation:

g = (2, 2)

step-by-step explanation:

given the ratio is 1 : 1 then f is the midpoint of eg

let the coordinates of g = (x, y)

using the midpoint formula

(0 + x) = 1 ( multiply both sides by 2 )

0 + x = 2 ⇒ x = 2

similarly

(4 + y) = 3 ( multiply both sides by 2 )

4 + y = 6 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

y = 2

coordinates of g = (2, 2)
