Given:

The equation is

[tex]-3(2x-3)=33[/tex]

The incorrect solution steps are given.

To find:

The first error.

Solution:

We have,

[tex]-3(2x-3)=33[/tex]

Using distributive property, we get

[tex]-3(2x)-3(-3)=33[/tex]

[tex]-6x+9=33[/tex]

The given step 1 is [tex]-6x+6=33[/tex], which is not correct.

Therefore, there is first error in step  1 because the distribution property is not used properly.

Hence, the correct option is D.
