I could've sworn that I copied this one correctly from my notes on the computer, but I guess I didn't, but this is the real one. If you can help me and explain what I did wrong, I would be very thankful

Answer 1

Disagree with 6, 7. There was no 9.

Answer 2

1. C yes
2. B yes
3. C no
4. A yes
5. B yes
6. A no
7. B no
8. A no
9. A this problem is not shown above
10. A yes

2x + 3( x - 2) - 3( x - 6)
2x + 3x -3x = -6 +18
2x + 12

Answer 3

You're right. 8 is A.

Answer 4

In contrast to Ms.Sue, agree with 8 and 3.

Answer 5

Can you help me with 3 and 6? When I do number 3 I do

x/5+6=10
-6 -6
x/5=4
x5 x5
x=20

Answer 6

x / 5 + 6 = 10

Subtract 6 to both sides

x / 5 + 6 - 6 = 10 - 6

x / 5 = 4

Multiply both sides by 5

x = 4 ∙ 5

x = 20

Answer 7

Ok, I'm good on that one, but what about 6? Can you like give me hints on how to solve it? I don't really want to know the answer until I give up

Answer 8

6.

- 9 - 6( w + 5 ) =

- 9 - 6 ∙ w - 6 ∙ 5 =

- 9 - 6 w - 30 =

- 6 w - 39

Answer 9

Thank you very very much!

Answer 10

Wut about the last 8

Answer 11

but what about 9?
