Find the Error
What error did the student make when solving the equation:
5x - 10 = 35
- 10 = - 10
5x = 25
5x/5= 25/5
x = 5

• The student subtracted 10 from both sides instead of adding

• Student divided by 5 instead of multiplying by 5

• Student got the wrong answer when subtracting 35 - 10

• The student did not correctly eliminate the variable from one side of the equation

Solve the equation

12x - 18 = 2(2x - 7)

• x = 2

• x = -2

• x = 0.5

• x = -0.5

A 10 inch candle and a 16 inch candle are lit at 6pm. The 10 inch candle burns 1.5 inches every hour. The 16 inch candle burns 1 inch every hour. At what time will the two candles be the same height? Write an equation.

• 10 - 1.5x = 16 - x

• 10 + 1.5x = 16 + x

• 10x - 1.5 = 16x - 1

• 10 + 1.5x = 16 + 2x
