Question

Mrs. McAlister wrote the equation 10 t minus 4 t + 3 t = 8 on the board and asked students to write an equivalent equation. The table below shows the responses from four students.

Student Responses

Michele
3 t = 8
Piotr
6 t = 8
Ronnie
Negative 1 t = 8
Tanisha
9 t = 8

Which student wrote an equation that is equivalent to Mrs. McAlister’s?
Michele
Piotr
Ronnie
Tanisha

Answer 1

Answer:

Tanisha wrote an equation that is the same as Mrs. McAlister's equation.

9t = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Mrs. McAlister wrote an equation on the board is:

10t-4t+3t=8

Now we simplify this

In order to simplify the left side, we combine like terms.

Here 10t, -4t, & 3t are like terms

So, 10t - 4t + 3t is equivalent to 9t

Thus,

9t = 8

This equation is written by the Tanisha.

That's the final answer.

I hope it helps you.

Answer 2

Answer:

Tanisha

Step-by-step explanation:

10t - 4t + 3t = 8    (given)

= 10t - 4t + 3t  = 8

= 9t = 8

This is what Tanisha wrote (9t = 8)
