Question
- A. 13p
- B. 17
- C. 9
- D. 26
Answer
The correct answer is 13p.
Explanation
Trace the calculation before choosing. The verified method for Identities and algebraic proof gives 13p; no later explanation is allowed to change that value.
Common mistake
Identities and algebraic proof common mistake 1
Writing a final answer without showing the method that justifies it. This can weaken answers for: [Foundation and Higher] Use algebra to show that expressions are equivalent and to support or construct mathematical arguments..
Show the method first, then give the final answer in the required form. Apply this directly to Identities and algebraic proof.
