Answer:  Step 2, and correct would be a) Step 2, 12x − 16 = 16 + 4x

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1. 4(3x − 4) = 8 + 4x + 8

Step 2. 7x − 8 = 16 + 4x

Step 3. 7x − 4x = 16 + 8

Step 4. 3x = 24

Step 5. x = 8

The student first make an error in Step 2, it should be 4 multiply the number inside the parentheses, which would be 4(3x) + 4(-4) = 8 + 4x + 8. We get 12x - 16 = 16 + 4x, which is choice a.

Oxana [17]
They would need to by 3 more tickets. 214 divided by 9 = 23 with the remainder of 3. So I divided 217 by 9 = 23. I added 3 to 214 which got a whole answer 23.
