Determine the error in Marty's work to solve the following equation. Please help me find what is wrong with the equation fast

Original equation: 3(-2x - 6) = 4 + 2 (7x - 3)
Line 1: -62 - 18 = 4 + 142 - 3
Line 2: -6x - 18 = 1 + 143
Line 3: -18 = 1 + 20
Line 4: -19 = 20.3
Line 5: -19/20=x

the function makes a strait line horizontally with no x intercept but a y intercept at 9.

step-by-step explanation:

(b) 240

step-by-step explanation:

first, we use the pythagorean formula using the given side lengths to find x. then we use x to find the side lengths. then we add the side lengths to find the perimeter.

pythagorean theorem formula:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

(x - 20)^2 + (x - 40)^2 = x^2

x^2 - 40x + 400 + x^2 - 80x + 1600 = x^2

x^2 -120x + 2000 = 0

(x - 100)(x - 20) = 0

x - 100 = 0 or x - 20 = 0

x = 100 or x = 20

we see that the solution x = 20 must be discarded because it will give a negative side length and a side length of 0. the only valid solution is x = 100.

perimeter = sum of the lengths of the sides

perimeter = x + x - 20 + x - 40

perimeter = 3x - 60

replace x with 100.

perimeter = 3(100) - 60

perimeter = 300 - 60

perimeter = 240
