Mai says that equations A and B have the same solution.
- Equation A:-3(x + 7) = 24
- Equation B:2 + 7 =-8
Which statement explains why this is true?
A: Adding 3 to both sides of Equation A gives x + 7 = -8.
B: Applying the distributive property to Equation A gives x + 7 = -8.
C: Subtracting 3 from both sides of Equation A gives X + 7 = -8.
D: Dividing both sides of Equation A by-3 gives x + 7 = -8.
