Zuleika was solving 2(x - 3) - 9 = 3x - 9. zuleika's first step resulted in 2(x - 3) = 3x

because she used the multiplication/addition property of equality. the second

step resulted in 2x - 16 = 3x because she collected like terms used the distributive

properly. in the next two steps, zuleika used the addition/multiplication property

twice to get -x = 6.she then found the solution, x = -6, by using the

addition/multiplication property of equality.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is

Step 1: Using addition property of equality, add 9 on both sides.

Step 2: Using distributive property, we get

Step 3: Using addition property of equality twice we get

Step 4: Using multiplication property of equality, multiply both sides by -1.

Therefore, the solution of the given equation is x=-6.

area = length x width

length = 2 x width

32 = 2 x width x width

32 = 2 x width^2

36 = width ^2  

width = 6

length = 12

area is 32

perimeter = 2 x 12 + 2 x 6 = 24 + 12 = 36

step-by-step explanation:

none of the above.

for one of the equations to be used in the process, there has to be a term in the equation since squared is .

since there is only a term in the first equation, we cannot derive a from completing the square.
