Question

Jordan was solving an equation, but she’s not confident it’s correct. She thinks she made a mistake, but she can’t find it. What was the mistake step

Answer 1

Answer:

126+56x=6x-5-11x has the mistake

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets start by looking at the second half of the first step =6x-(5-11x)

when you multiply the - into (5-11x) the -11x will change to positive. So the second step should actually be 126+56x=6x-5+11x

Rule: multiplying two negatives will make a positive

hope this helps!
