Please help me with this question:)

Ada is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems with Naman:

Naman is supposed to follow PEMDAS, which is the order of operations, and stands for:

Parenthesis

Exponents (& Roots)

Multiplications

Division

Addition

Subtraction

~

The mistake: Naman moved +6 to the left and added it to the 2 located on the left side of the expression. You cannot do that, as it breaks the law of PEMDAS. On the other hand, Ada did the correct thing, which was to distribute 2 to all terms within the parenthesis (as one term in the parenthesis has a variable, and the other is a constant, meaning that they cannot be combined). This leads to Naman not doing the rest of the question correct.

Next, Ada correctly combined the two constants, which resulted in 0. 0 means nothing, therefore the placeholder is not needed. Therefore, 8x is the final answer.

x + y = 90 5x – 10y = 90 90 – 10y = 5x 90 + 10y = 5x

step-by-step explanation:

last month maria hiked the 5-mile mountain trail a number of times and she hiked the 10-mile canal trail several times. let x represent the number of times she hiked the 5-mile trail, and let y represent the number of times she hiked the 10-mile trail. if she hiked a total of 90 miles, which equation can be used to find the number of times maria hiked each trail? x + y = 90 5x – 10y = 90 90 – 10y = 5x 90 + 10y = 5x
