Find the Error A student wrote the equation 22+4-6s+12s to represent the problem shown below. Find his mistake
and correct it.
Darnell and Emma are college students. Darnell currently has 22 credits and he plans on taking 6 credits per
semester Emma has 4 credits and plans to take 12 credits per semester. After how many semesters, s, will Darnell
and Emma have the same number of credits?
OA) The situation can be described as 4 credits plus 6 credits per semester is the same as 22 credits plus 12
credits per semester. So, the correct equation is 4+ 6s = 22 +12s.
OB) The situation can be described as 22 credits plus 6 credits per semester is the same as 4 credits plus 12
credits per semester. So, the correct equation is 22+ 6s=4+12s.
OC) The situation can be described as 12 credits plus 6 credits per semester is the same as 4 credits plus 22
credits per semester. So, the correct equation is 12+ 6s=4+22s.
OD) The situation can be described as 6 credits plus 22 credits per semester is the same as 12 credits plus 4
credits per semester. So, the correct equation is 6+22s = 12 + 4s.
