Drag each equation to show if it could be a correct first step to solving the equation 2(x+7) =36

(2.x) + (2.7) = 36

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving the given equation with the distributive property,

 A(B + C) = (A.B) + (A.C)

So that,

2(x+7) = 36

(2.x) + (2.7) = 36

2x + 14 = 36

2x = 36 - 14

2x = 22

x = 11

From the given expressions, the option that is the correct first step to solving this equation is;

(2.x) + (2.7) = 36

point a is the center of the circle that passes through points e, f, and g and the center of the circle that passes through points x, y, and z.
