Question

Trista solved an equation for x. Her solution is shown below.

36 + x = 54

36 + x - 36 = 54 + 36

x = 90

Is Trista's solution correct? If not, what error did she make and what is the correct answer. Explain. plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Answer 1

It’s incorrect bc you’re using inverse operations to solve the equation so she wasn’t supposed to add 36 to 54 what she was supposed to do was subtract 36 from 54 and well that would be your answer “x=28”

Answer 2

Answer:

x is 54-36=18

x= 18
