Question

Which table best represents the steps to solve the equation 8 + alt= = 4? (4 points)
Question 12 options:
1)
Step Justification
Step 1: alt= = 4 + 8 The same number +8 can be added to both sides of the equation
Step 2: alt= = 12 Adding 8 and 4 on the right hand side
Step 3: x = 12 • 3 The same number 3 can be multiplied on both sides of the equation
Step 4: x = 36 Multiplying 12 and 3 on the right hand side
2)
Step Justification
Step 1: alt= = 4 - 8 The same number -8 can be added to both sides of the equation
Step 2: alt= = -4 Adding -8 and 4 on the right hand side
Step 3: x = -4 • 3 The same number 3 can be multiplied on both sides of the equation
Step 4: x = -12 Multiplying -4 and 3 on the right hand side
3)
Step Justification
Step 1: alt= = 4 - 8 The same number - 8 can be added to both sides of the equation
Step 2: alt= = -4 Adding 4 and -8 on the right hand side
tep 3: x = - 4 - 3 The same number 3 can be subtracted from both sides of the equation
Step 4: x = -7 Simplifying -4 -3
4)
Step Justification
Step 1: alt= = -4 - 8 The same number -8 can be added to both sides of the equation
Step 2: alt= = -4 Adding -8 and 4 on the right hand side
Step 3: x = -4 ÷ 3 The same number 3 can be divided on both sides of the equation
Step 4: x = -1.33 Dividing -4 by 3 on the right hand side

Answer 1

Most definitely not 1) as it doesnt fit the original question since 8+12 is definitely not 4
so now we are left with the last 3 options
it cannot be 4) as alt is not equal to -4-8, rather it is 4-8

Answer 2

alt = -4. and x/3 = -4, so that means that x must be -12
Hence the answer is 2)

Answer 3

i was having trouble sense theres so much information that was needed to be looked at and now that you have summed it all lup i than u

Answer 4

no probs, you just have to break it up into parts
