Question

The steps below show the incomplete solution to find the value of x for the equation 6x + 10 − 4x = −4 − 11:

Step 1: 6x + 10 − 4x = −4 − 11
Step 2: 6x + 10 − 4x = −15
Step 3: 2x + 10 = −15

Which of these is most likely the next step?

A. 2x = 5

B. 2x = −25

C. 2x = 25

D. 2x=150

Answer 1

Hi there! The answer is B. 2x = - 25

Step 3: 2x + 10 = -15.
It would be the most logical now to subtract 10 from both sides. Then we get our 4th step.

2x + 10 - 10 = - 15 - 10
2x = -25
