@Holly00d1248 I think it is 2 but im not sure

Okay thanks!

Solve the equation.
First, use the distributive property on the left side.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
4a+3a+3=24
7a=24-3
a=21/7=3
OpenStudy (anonymous):
That makes sence

An equation is shown below:
3(4x + 5) = 12
Which of the following correctly shows the beginning steps to solve this equation? (4 points)
Step 1: 7x + 5 = 12
Step 2: 7x = 7
Step 1: 12x + 5 = 12
Step 2: 12x = 7
Step 1: 12x + 15 = 12
Step 2: 12x = –3
Step 1: 7x + 8 = 12
Step 2: 7x = 4

For example:
\(3(4x + 6) = 3 \cdot 4x + 3 \cdot 6 = 12x + 18\)
