Question

PLEASE HELP WITH MY HOMEWORK!!!!!!!!!

Answer 1

I think it’s C. They did both wrong... because they didn’t apply the distributive property correctly. 8(x-y) is 8x-8y not 8x-y. And then besides that they subtracted 7 on the right side when they were supposed to add 7. So it’s wrong. So it’s A and B. The answer is C

Answer 2

Its C

Explanation:

The student incorrectly applied the Distributive Property in Step 1 because they were supposed to do:

8(p - 7)

(8*p) - (7*8)

but they only did 8*p and left the 7 alone.

they were also supposed to add 7 on both sides not add 7 and subtract 7.
