Question

Kelsey solved the following equation:

Answer 1

Answer:

1.  Distributive property

2. Combine like terms

3. Addition property of equality

4. Division property of equality

Step-by-step explanation:

7x - ½ ( 8x+ 2 ) = 6          Distribute the -½

        7x - 4x - 1 = 6          Combine like terms

               3x - 1 = 6           Add 1 on both sides

                    3x = 7           Divide 3 on both sides

                       x = 7/3
