Find the error in the problem below
19 - 2k = 3k - 1
+3k +3k
19 + 1k = -1
-19 -19
k = -20
19 - 2k = 3k - 1
+3k +3k
19 + 1k = -1
-19 -19
k = -20
a)
They should have divided by 1 for the last step
b)
They should add 19 instead of subtracting 19
c)
I can not find an error
d)
Instead of adding 3k they should subtract 3k

Find the Error
What error did the student make when solving the equation:
5x + 6 = 66
5x - 6 = 66 -6
5x = 60
5*5x= 60*5
x = 300
What error did the student make when solving the equation:
5x + 6 = 66
5x - 6 = 66 -6
5x = 60
5*5x= 60*5
x = 300
a)
The student subtracted 6 from both sides instead of adding
b)
Student multiplied by 5 instead of dividing by 5
c)
Student got the wrong answer when subtracting 66-6
d)
The student did not correctly eliminate the variable from one side of the equation
24.
The steps in solving
4b + 4 = 24 are:
4b + 4 = 24 are:
a)
Add 4 to both sides then divide both sides by 4
b)
Add 4 to both sides then multiply both sides by 4
c)
Subtract 4 from both sides then multiply both sides by 4
d)
Subtract 4 from both sides then divide both sides by 4
