An equation is shown below:

Question

7(2x − 3) = 1

Which of the following correctly shows the first two steps to solve this equation? (1 point)

Step 1: 9x − 7 = 1; Step 2: 9x = 8

Step 1: 9x + 4 = 1; Step 2: 9x = −3

Step 1: 14x − 3 = 1; Step 2: 14x = 4

Step 1: 14x − 21 = 1; Step 2: 14x = 22

Answer 1

Step 1: 14x - 21 = 1; Step 2: 14x = 22
