On number 8? gets points. show work : p.

Student P:

They messed up in step 1 because they made the 7.75 positive instead of negative, which causes the entire solution to be wrong

Student Q:

They were correct up until step 3. They didn't take all the negatives out of the equation (ex. -(3.5+7.75+29.67)).

Complete set:

From the picture, it looks like the original problem was

-2.5(1.4+3.1)+6.9(-4.3)

Step 1: multiply

1.4(-2.5)+3.1(-2.5)+6.9(-4.3)

Step 2: subtract (add?) them all together

-3.5-7.75-29.67

Step 3 should equal -40.92

c

step-by-step explanation:

i think because what else can be a sample of every member

-2x + 7 = 7

subtract 7 from both sides.

-2x = 0

divide both sides by -2.

x = 0
