An equation is shown below:

3(4x − 2) = 1

Which of the following correctly shows the first two steps to solve this equation?
Step 1: 12x − 2 = 1; Step 2: 12x = 3

Step 1: 12x − 6 = 1; Step 2: 12x = 7

Step 1: 7x + 1 = 1; Step 2: 7x = 0

Step 1: 7x − 5 = 1; Step 2: 7x = 6

Answer:

The correct option is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is

[tex]3(4x-2)=1[/tex]

Step 1: use distributive property.

[tex]3(4x)+3(-2)=1[/tex]

[tex]12x-6=1[/tex]

Step 2: Add 6 on both the sides.

[tex]12x-6+6=1+6[/tex]

[tex]12x=7[/tex]

Therefore the correct option is 2.

Answer:

Ya'll trippin', the person above is correct, it's the second option;

Step 1: 12x - 6 = 1; Step 2: 12x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

How do I know?

3(4x - 2) = 1

(do distributive property)

so 3 times 4x and 3 times -2

12x - 6 = 1

(add +6 to 1; you do + 6 because you do the opposite of the og sign)

12x = 7

SO, the answer is clearly the second option.
