Lesson Steps

Step Type Explanation Answer

1

Problem

Find the unknown variable x in the equation \$x + 3(x + 2) = 50\$.

2

Step

Moving common terms to one side

x + 3x + 6 = 50

⇒ 4x = 44

3

Step

Find the x value

⇒ \$ x = 44/4 \$

⇒ x = 11

4

Choice.A

If we substitute x = 10 into the equation x + 3(x + 2) = 50, we get 10 + 3(10 + 2) = 10 + 3(12) = 10 + 36 = 46, which is not equal to 50. Therefore, option A is incorrect

\$ x = 10 \$

5

Choice.B

If we substitute x = 11 into the equation x + 3(x + 2) = 50, we get 11 + 3(11 + 2) = 11 + 3(13) = 11 + 39 = 50, which is equal to 50. Therefore, option B is correct

\$x = 11\$

6

Choice.C

If we substitute x = 9 into the equation x + 3(x + 2) = 50, we get 9 + 3(9 + 2) = 9 + 3(11) = 9 + 33 = 42, which is not equal to 50. Therefore, option C is incorrect

\$x = 9\$

7

Choice.D

If we substitute x = 12 into the equation x + 3(x + 2) = 50, we get 12 + 3(12 + 2) = 12 + 3(14) = 12 + 42 = 54, which is not equal to 50. Therefore, option D is incorrect

\$x = 12\$

Answer

Option

B
