Answer:
Given equation: 2(x+7) = 36. ......[1]
Distributive Property of multiplication states that when a number is multiplied by the sum of two numbers, the first number can be distributed to both of those numbers and multiplied by each of them separately i.e,
Then,
By using the distributive property in equation [1];
2(x+7) = 36
Simplify:
Divide both sides by 2 in above equation:
Simplify:
x+7 = 18.
Therefore, the first correct step would be option B,
after that the next step would be option A then option F as shown above;
Remaining options are not enough information to solve the given equation 2(x+7) = 36.
