Question

Help me please Circle describe and correct each error -2=-3+x/4-2(4)-3+x/4•48=-3+x+3X=11

Answer 1

The error in the solution is circled (red) in the picture below.

The equation can be solved correctly as follows

`\begin{gathered} -2=(-3+x)/(4) \\ \\ Multiply\text{ }both\text{ }sides\text{ }by\text{ }4 \\ \\ -2(4)=(-3+x)/(4)\cdot4 \\ \\ -8=-3+x \\ \\ Add\text{ }3\text{ }to\text{ }both\text{ }sides \\ \\ -8+3=-3+x+3 \\ \\ x=-5 \end{gathered}`
