Manuel made at least one error as he found the value of this expression. Identify the step in which Manuel made his first error. After identifying the step with the first error, explain the corrected steps and find the final answer.

Manuel made his first mistake in step 2 leading to the continuous mistakes

Final answer=185

Step-by-step explanation:

Manuel made at least one error as she found the value of this expression. 2(-20) + 3[5/4(-20)] + 5[2/5(50)] + 4(50) Step 1: 2(-20) + 3(-25) + 5(20) + 4(50) Step 2: (3 + 2)(-20 + -25) + (5 + 4)(20 + 50) Step 3: 5(-45) + 9(70) Step 4: -225 + 630 Step 5: 405 Identify the step in which Chris made her first error. After identifying the step with the first error, write the corrected steps and find the final answer.

2(-20) + 3[5/4(-20)] + 5[2/5(50)] + 4(50)

Step 1: 2(-20) + 3(-25) + 5(20) + 4(50)

Step 2: -40 - 75 + 100 +

200

Step 3: -115 + 300

Step 4: 185

Manuel made his first error in step 2 by combining two different terms into one as he has done

(3 + 2)(-20 + -25) and also (5 + 4)(20 + 50)

Step 2: (3 + 2)(-20 + -25) + (5 + 4)(20 + 50)

Step 3: 5(-45) + 9(70) Step 4: -225 + 630 Step 5: 405

He should have evaluated the terms separately as I have done above, giving us 185 as the final answer in contrast to his 405 final answer.

in problems involving proportions, we can use cross products to test whether two ratios are equal and form a proportion. to find the cross products of a proportion, we multiply the outer terms, called the extremes, and the middle terms, called the means.
