Suzie is generating an expression equivalent to 3x-4+5(6x-8). Her work is show below. Step 1: 3x-4+30x-40
Step 2: 27x+36
Step 3: 9(3x+4)
Which step has an error?
Which of the following is the correct factored version of the original expression?

uh the second step has the initial error they subtracted 3x and made 40 positive instead of adding 3x and leaving 40 negative, the first step is fine tho, the equation (i did this in my head so it miighhtt be wrong but uh) 11(3x - 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

i explained that thing but wo explaining

first step right

middle (and last bc of middle) step wrong

correct answer is 11(3x - 4)

3.76%

step-by-step explanation:

i think something is missing in your question because y-1=(x-12) would not pass through the point (-4,-3). because if you replace x by -4 your are supposed to find y=-3 which is not the case her. if you replace x by -4 you find =-15.

i assume the right equation is y-1=1/4*(x-12) because this one is passing through both your points (if you are interested to know how i found that out i can tell you).

in this equation if i replace x by -4 i find y=-3 and if i replace x by 12, i find y=1 so the line representing this equation is passing through those 2 points.

then the standard form of the equation is finding an expression of y in function of x

y-1=1/4*(x-12)

y=x/4-3+1

y=x/4-2

hope that .

do you confirm there was a mistake in the question?
