Jorge solves the equation 4 x minus (x + 2) + 6 = 2 (3 x + 8) using the steps below. Step 1: 4 x minus x + 2 + 6 = 6 x + 16
Step 2: 3 x + 8 = 6 x + 16
Step 3: 8 minus 16 = 6 x minus 3 x
Step 4: Negative 8 = 3 x
Step 5: Negative StartFraction 8 Over 3 EndFraction = x

Jorge verifies his solution by substituting Negative StartFraction 8 Over 3 EndFraction into the original equation for x. He determines that his solution is incorrect. Which best describes Jorge’s error?
