Berniece solved the following equation: 4x − 2x + 8 = 6(x + 4) step work justification 1 2x + 8 = 6(x + 4) combine like terms 2 2x + 8 = 6x + 24 distributive property 3 −4x + 8 = 24 subtraction property of equality 4 −4x = 16 addition property of equality 5 x = −4 division property of equality which step has an incorrect justification? (make sure to type only the number of the step into the blank: 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5)

Step 4 is incorrect.

This is technically another example of the subtraction property of inequality. This is because we are subtracting 8 from both sides to get the 8 to cancel and the 24 to go down to 16. This is not addition and should not be justified as such.

step-by-step explanation:

the original amount doesn't ''re just looking for the time it takes for 1/2 of the substance to we have

(1/2) =)     take the ln   of both sides

ln (1/2)   = )   and we can write

ln(1/2) = ) lne     and lne   = 1     so we have

ln(1/2) = -.1092t     divide both sides by -.1092

t = ln(1/2)/-.1092 = about 6.347 days = about 6.3 days (rounded)
