Someone help and please answer it fully

No, Matt did not solve the equation correctly

Correct x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

4(x + 2) = 30

Step 1: Distribute

4x + 2 = 30           This is his mistake, he should completely distribute 4    

                                  to x and 2

Step 2: Subtract 2 from both sides/Isolate x

4x = 28                This part is done correctly, but wrong because of Step 1

Step 3: Divide both sides by 4

x = 7                      This is correct, but again, he messed up on Step 1

Step 1: Distribute

Remember to distribute 4 to all terms in the parenthesis.

4(x + 2) = 4(x) + 4(2)

            = 4x + 8

4x + 8 = 30

Step 2: Subtract 8 from both sides/Isolate x

Move all the terms that do not belong to x to the other side. We can do this by subtracting 8 from both sides   (opposite operation of adding 8)

4x + 8 = 30

4x = 30 - 8

4x = 32

Step 3: Divide both sides by 4/Isolate x

Now we want x by itself. Since x is being multiplied by 4, we have to use the opposite operation, dividing by 4, to have x on one side by itself

4x = 32

4(x) = 32

x = 32 ÷ 4

x = 8

true? is that what you're asking or do you mean something else?

y=3n + 1

step-by-step explanation:

this is wrong because it says the second number is one less and i added one instead
