Question

Complete the Next Step: A partial solution to the equation 4(2x − 3) = 20 is given below. Choose the step that is missing from the solution.
4(2x − 3) = 20
8x = 32
x = 4

6x − 3 = 24

8x − 12 = 20

2x − 12 = 24

6x + 12 = 5

Answer 1

missing step comes after 4(2x - 3) = 20
distribute 4 over the parentheses will give the missing step

Answer 2

4( a - b) = 4a - 4b

Answer 3

is it c?

Answer 4

no
what is 4 * 2x ?

Answer 5

8 so its b

Answer 6

right!

Answer 7

4(2x - 3) = 8x - 12
