Answer:
B. The student did not properly apply the addition property to isolate x

Explanation:
When given an equation to solve, always remember that when you do an external operation (add/subtract/multiply a term or divide by a term) on one side of the equation, the same operation should be applied on the other side in order to maintain the equality of the equation.

Now, let's take a look on the steps done:
Step 1:
3 = 2 - x
Step 2:
3 = 2 - 2 - x
Step 3:
3 = -x

Now, note n step 2, the student wanted to get rid of the 2 next to the x, therefore, he subtracted 2. However, the student did not subtract the 2 from the other side of the equation. Since we're taking addition (we're adding a -2), therefore, the student incorrectly applied the addition property to isolate the x.

The correct steps would be as follows:
Step 1:
3 = 2 - x
Step 2:
3 - 2 = 2 - 2 - x
Step 3:
1 = - x

Hope this helps :)
