Sample Response: Both are correct. As long as inverse operations and the properties of equality are used properly, both methods will generate the same solution. They both isolate the variable on one side of the equation.

Spencer would be the correct one because it's easier to keep your variables positive when trying to solve. Therefore, in order to keep the variable positive, one would have to add 4x to both sides.
