Which step is incorrect when solving the equation 2(x+9)=4(x+7)+2? Choose the first step that made an error.

1. 2(x+9)=4(x+7)+2

2. 2x+18=4X+28+2

3. 2x+18=4x+26

4. -8=2x

5. -4=x
(i think it's step 3)

3. 2x+18=4x+26

Step-by-step explanation:

2(x+9)=4(x+7)+2

2x+18=4x+28+2

2x+18=4x+30

The step that made an error in solving this linear equation is step 3.

solution:

the given function is ,

      =

the three roots of this quadratic function is , 0 ,8 and 10.all the roots are real and rational.

if a quadratic equation is of the form ,

sum of the roots = a + b +c= 0+8+10=18=  

product of roots taken two at a time = a b + b c+ c a = 0+80+0=80 =  

product of roots = a b c = 0=  

there are 11 doors in a hall starting from 0 to 11.the entry in the hall is permitted through gate number 0 and exit is allowed through only gate number 8 and 10.so, three roots(0,8,10) of quadratic function is given by entry and exit route of this hall.

the first option is the answer.
