Alice tried to solve the equation. What was her mistake? -1/4(x - 12) = -1
-1/4x = 11
x = -44

She didn’t multiply -1/4 by 12 in order to get -1/4x + 3 = -1

which would change her answer, because then you have to subtract 3 from -1 and get -4. Then divide -1/4 & get 16. It changed to positive because of the division & multiplication rule with two negative numbers.

Hope this helps.

128/3reason being 5 and 1/3 = 16/316/3 • 2/3 = 32/31 and 1/3 = 4/3 32/3 • 4/3 this will equal 128/3
