Berniece solved the following equation: 4x − 2x + 8 = 6(x + 4) step work justification 1 2x + 8 = 6(x + 4) combine like terms 2 2x + 8 = 6x + 24 distributive property 3 −4x + 8 = 24 subtraction property of equality 4 −4x = 16 addition property of equality 5 x = −4 division property of equality which step has an incorrect justification? (make sure to type only the number of the step into the blank: 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5)

Step 4 is incorrect.

This is technically another example of the subtraction property of inequality. This is because we are subtracting 8 from both sides to get the 8 to cancel and the 24 to go down to 16. This is not addition and should not be justified as such.

a. (14,375+570)(5.3) b. 158,417$

step-by-step explanation:

a. you are basically just setting up the equation. f= amount of debt hence 14,375. g= how much she is borrowing from her parents weekly hence 570 and t= the interest on her debt. creating the equation.

b.   14,375+570= 14,945

      14,945 x 5.3 = 79,208.5

      79,208.5 x 2(years) = 158,417(answer)

8.75

how-to:

first, we need to find what we have to work with.

since i know that we have 7 (years) and 0.8 (inches), we can use these to solve and find the equation!

secondly, what you want to do, is see that we need to know how much growth out of the 0.8 inches he got in only 1 year, instead of 7 years.

let's try to divide.

7 ÷ 0.8 = 8.75
