A student is attempting to solve a multi-step equation. Sample mathematical work is shown below. Which statement best applies to the sample mathematical work? Given the equation 35x – 10 = 5, I must solve for x. I first divide both sides by 35, which results in the equation x-10=1/7 I then add 10 to both sides, which gives me my final answer of x=71/70 A. The student incorrectly divided both sides by 35. B. The student incorrectly added 10 to both sides. C. The final answer is not reduced or simplified. D. The mathematical work shown is correct.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

A:  The student incorrectly divided both sides by 35.  The student should first add 10 to both sides, obtaining 35x = 15, and then divide 15 by 35, obtaining the final answer 3/7.

In the xy plane, what is the y intercept of the graph of the equation y=2 (x+3)(x+4)?

Answers

The y-intercept is the value of y when the graph intersects the y-axis.  Graphs intersect the y-axis when x=0, so we just substitute in x=0 to get:

y=2(0+3)(0+4)

y=2(3)(4)

y=24

Therefore, 24 is our answer.
