Paloma used these steps to solve the equation 6x+5=3 (2x+1). Which choice describes the meaning of her result, 2=0?

A. The solution is x=2.

B. The result is not correct because Step 2 has an error.

C. All values of x make the equation true.

D. No values of x make the equation true.

B. The result is not correct because Step 2 has an error.

Step-by-step explanation:

6x+5=3 (2x+1) Distribute on the right side

6x+5=6x+3

-6x - 6x Subtract 6x from both sides

5≠3 There is no solution because 5 doesn't equal 3

The reason Paloma's result is wrong is because you can't subtract 3 from 5 and set it equal to 0

Ex: 5-3 = 0 2 = 0
