Jason is given the equation 3x − 12 = 36 to solve. His first step is to divide each term by 3. Do you think Jason's method is a good one to follow? Give an example to help justify your answer

Answer:

No, Jason's method is not a good one to follow, because u have to let x alone, and try to break down the constant.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jason should do 3x - 12 = 36

                            3x + 12 = + 12

                            3x = 48

                             x = 16

Answer:

It works and is a good one to follow if each term is divisible by the same number!

Step-by-step explanation:

Dividing each term by 3 will give us the equation x - 4 = 12 which leads to the correct answer of x = 16.

However, if there each term is not divisible by the same number, it is not a good method to follow (because it will not work).
