Answer:

(C)

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation of Susie's method:

The given equation is:

[tex]2x-3=4x-2[/tex]

[tex]2x-2x-3=4x-2x-2[/tex]

[tex]-3=2x-2[/tex]

[tex]-3+2=2x[/tex]      ( she made a mistake when she subtracted 2)

[tex]-1=2x[/tex]

[tex]x=-\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Susie made a mistake in step 4 when she subtracted 2,

Thus, option C is correct.
