Error Analysis Two students evaluate the expression 4t + 5x - _1 when x = 3. x
Which student is correct? Explain the error.
Student A
9-4·2 =5·2 = 10
Student B
9-4·2 =9-8 =1
Student A
4 t + 5 x - _1 ; x = 3 x
= 4 t + 5 ( 3 ) - _1 3
= 4t + 15 - _1 3
= 4t + 14_2 3
Student B
4 t + 5 x - _1 ; x = 3 x
= 4t + 53 - _1 3
= 4t + 52_2 3
