The most appropriate response is because of the fertile soil.

River deltas are known for their rich, fertile soil, which is ideal for agriculture. Volcanic islands can also have fertile soils due to the mineral content from volcanic ash. These factors make these areas attractive for human settlement and agriculture.

Identify the first step in solving this equation for x : 7(x − 8) = 49 . (1 point)

Multiply both sides by 7.
Multiply both sides by 7.

Divide only the left side by 7.
Divide only the left side by 7.

Add 8 to both sides.
Add 8 to both sides.

Divide both sides by 7.

The first step in solving the equation \( 7(x - 8) = 49 \) for \( x \) is to divide both sides by 7. This step simplifies the equation and isolates the term involving \( x \).

So the correct response is: Divide both sides by 7.

Identify the second step in solving this equation for y : −3(y + 6) = 21 . (1 point)

Divide both sides by −3
.
Divide both sides by negative 3.

Divide both sides by 6.
Divide both sides by 6.

Subtract 6 from both sides.
Subtract 6 from both sides.

Add 6 to both sides.

To solve the equation \(-3(y + 6) = 21\), the first step would be to divide both sides by \(-3\) to simplify the equation.

After that step, you'll have: \[ y + 6 = -7 \]

The second step would then be to subtract 6 from both sides to isolate \(y\).

So the correct response for the second step is: Subtract 6 from both sides.

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 minus 8 right parenthesis equals 48

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

6x − 8 = 48
6 x minus 8 equals 48

6(x + 8) = 48

To determine which equation allows you to first divide both sides by 6 and then add 8 to both sides, we can analyze each option:

  1. 6(x − 8) = 48
    Dividing both sides by 6 yields \(x - 8 = 8\). Adding 8 gives \(x = 16\).

  2. 8(x − 6) = 48
    Dividing both sides by 8 would be the first step, not by 6.

  3. 6x − 8 = 48
    You would add 8 first, not divide by 6.

  4. 6(x + 8) = 48
    Dividing both sides by 6 gives \(x + 8 = 8\). Adding 8 would not be the next step.

Therefore, the only equation that matches the order of steps to first divide both sides by 6 and then add 8 is:

6(x − 8) = 48.
