The work of a student trying to solve the equation 4(2x − 1) = 11 + 3x + 5 is shown below: Step 1: 4(2x − 1) = 11 + 3x + 5
Step 2: 8x − 4 = 16 + 3x
Step 3: 8x + 3x = 16 − 4
Step 4: 11x = 24
Step 5: x = 2.18

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

Step 2: 8x − 1 = 16 + 3x
Step 2: 8x − 8 = 6 + 3x
Step 3: 8x − 3x = 16 + 4
Step 3: 8x + 3x = 16 − 8

The decibel level of sound is 50 db greater on a busy street than in a quiet room where the intensity of sound is watt/m2. the level of sound in the quiet room is db, and the intensity of sound in the busy street is watt/m2. use the formula , where is the sound level in decibels, i is the intensity of sound, and is the smallest sound intensity that can be heard by the human ear (roughly equal to watts/m2).
