Kaitlyn solved the equation for x using the following calculations. Negative 5.4 + x = 12.2. Minus 5.4. x = 6.8. What error, if any, did she make?

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation that Kaitlyn solved is as follows :

-5.4+x=12.2

The steps to solve it as follows :

Step 1. Add 5.4 to both sides,

-5.4+x+5.4=12.2+5.4

Step 2. 5.4 will cancel out as both have opposite signs

x=17.6

But Kaitlyn solved it as :

5.4.x=6.8

She has multiplied -5.4 and x which is wrong. The correct answer is 17.6.

i would say c is the best answer, hope it's right!

good luck! =)
