Malloy solved the equation −5x − 16 = 8; his work is shown below. identify the error and where it was made. −5x − 16 = 8 step 1: −5x − 16 + 16 = 8 + 16 step 2: −5x = 24 step 3: negative five times x over five = twenty-four over five step 4: x = twenty-four over five step 1: he should have subtracted 16 from each side. step 1: he should have divided both sides by −5. step 3: he should have multiplied both sides by −5. step 3: he should have divided both sides by −5.
