What is the justification for each step in the solution of the equation? 23x−13=2(x+2) select from the drop-down menus to correctly justify each step.

23x-13=2(x+2)

First you would distribute the 2 into the parenthesis

It will look like this after: 23x-13=2x+4

Then you would subtract 2x on both sides because u have to get the x's on one side

It will look like this after:21x-13=4

Then you would add 13 to both sides

It will look like this after: 21x=17

Then you would divide 21 on both sides

Your final product is 21/17

answer: 16

step-by-step explanation: first you would add 6+6 which equals 12 then add 2+2 which equals 4. then add 12 + 4 which is 16.

hope this ^_^
