What's the Error?

  • Question 13 (request help)

    Melinda has a block of clay that weighs 14.4 ounces. She divides the clay into 6 equal pieces. To find the weight w in ounces of each piece, Melinda solved the equation 6w = 14.4.

    Look at how Melinda solved the equation. Find her error.

    \(\begin{align}
    6\text{w} &= 14.4 \\
    \frac{6\text{w}}{6} &= 6\times14.4 \\
    \text{w} &= 86.4 \\
    \end{align}
    \)

    Correct the error. Solve the equation, and explain your steps.

  • Question 14 (request help)

    For numbers 14a−14d, choose Yes or No to indicate whether the equation has the solution x = 15.

    14a. 15x = 30

    14b. 4x = 60

    14c. \(\cfrac{\text{x}}{5} = 3\)

    14d. \(\cfrac{\text{x}}{3} = 5\)
