Answer:
Option 1.
Step-by-step explanation:
The given equation is
To solve the given equation for x, first we need to use distributive property.
Using Distributive property we get
Now we need to add -2(-4)+4 on left side and 3(1)+1 on right side.
It is given that Maricella begins by adding –4 + 4 on the left side of the equation and 1 + 1 on the right side of the equation.
She was incorrect because the multiplication that takes place while distributing comes before addition and subtraction in order of operations.
Therefore, the correct option is 1.
