Taylor tried to solve an equation step by step.
7(y+4.5)= 32.5
step 1. 7y + 4.5= 32.5
step 2. 7y= 28
step 3. y= 4
find taylor’s mistake.
choose one
a) step 1
b) step 2
c) step 3
d) taylor didn’t make a mistake.
can you me with this problem! ?

Step 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Taylor tried to solve an equation step by step.

Step 1.

In step 1, 7 is distributed inside the parenthesis. Taylor forgot to multiply 7 with 4.5. WE need to multiply 7 with y and 7 with 4.5

So equation becomes

Step 2.

Step 3.

Taylor did mistake in step 1. 7 is not distributed correctly inside the parenthesis.

x = -15 - y

y = -15 - x
