Question

Susie and Amelia solved the same equation using two separate methods. Their work is shown in the table below:

Answer 1

Susie made the error when she subtracted 2

Answer 2

(C)

Explanation:

Explanation of Susie's method:

The given equation is:

`2x-3=4x-2`

`2x-2x-3=4x-2x-2`

`-3=2x-2`

`-3+2=2x` ( she made a mistake when she subtracted 2)

`-1=2x`

`x=-(1)/(2)`

Susie made a mistake in step 4 when she subtracted 2,

Thus, option C is correct.
