For which equation is the order of steps to first divide both sides by 6 and then to add 8 to both sides?(1 point)
Responses

6(x + 8) = 48
6 left parenthesis x plus 8 right parenthesis equals 48

6x − 8 = 48
6 x minus 8 equals 48

8(x − 6) = 48
8 left parenthesis x minus 6 right parenthesis equals 48

6(x − 8) = 48
