08.05) The work of a student to solve a set of equations is shown below:

Equation 1: m = 6 + n
Equation 2: 2m = 8 + 8n

Step 1: −2(m) = −2(6 + n)
2m = 8 + 8n

Step 2: −2m = −12 − 2n
2m = 8 + 8n

Step 3: −12 − 2n = 8 + 8n

Step 4: −20 = 10n

Step 5: n = −2

In which step did the student first make an error?
Step 2
Step 3
Step 4
Step 5

answer: c.  

step-by-step explanation:

mixtures containing substances that get attracted to magnet can be separated using a magnet. we can separate iron from a mixture of sand and iron, as only iron attracts to the magnet.

hello from mrbilldoesmath!

answer:   x (x+6)^2, choice b

discussion:

factor x out of the equation:

x^3 + 12x^2 + 36x = x (x^2 + 12x + 36).

note that 6+6 = 12 and 6*6 = 36 so the above factors into:

x (x+6)^2

which is choice b

you,

mrb

i think the answer is c sorry if it's wrong
