Question

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

8(x − 6) = 48

8 left parenthesis x minus 6 right parenthesis equals 48

6(x + 8) = 48

6 left parenthesis x plus 8 right parenthesis equals 48

6(x − 8) = 48

6 left parenthesis x minus 8 right parenthesis equals 48

6x − 8 = 48

Answer 1

6(x − 8) = 48

Reason: Divide both sides by 6 → x − 8 = 8. Then add 8 to both sides → x = 16.
