Question

Sarah solved this system of equations. 4x + 2y = –14 –10x - 7y = –25 Step 1: 40x + 20y = –140    –40x - 28y = 100 Step 2: –8y = –40 Step 3: y = 5 Step 4: 4x + 2(5) = –14 Step 5: x = –6 Step 6: Solution: (–6, 5) Did Sara find the correct solution to the system of equations? Explain. Yes, Sara found the correct solution. No, in step 1 she multiplied the right side of the second equation by –4 instead of by 4. No, in step 4, she substituted the value of y back into the wrong equation to solve for x. No, in step 6, she switched the order of the solution. It should be (5, –6).

Answer 1

A) Yes, Sara found the correct solution.

B) No, in step 1 she multiplied the right side of the second equation by –4 instead of by 4.

C)No, in step 4, she substituted the value of y back into the wrong equation to solve for x.

D)No, in step 6, she switched the order of the solution. It should be (5, –6).

Answer = B) No, in step 1 she multiplied the right side of the second equation by –4 instead of by 4.
