Question 24 4 pts
Samuel needs to solve the equation
4(x - 2) + 2 = 4x - 8.
Which equations represent a first step Samuel could use to solve the original equation? Select all
that apply.
Samuel divides both sides of the equation by 4 to get x - 2 + 2 = x - 2
Samuel subtracts 4 from both sides of the equation to get x - 2 + 2 = 4x - 12
Samuel distributes 2 on the left side of the equation 4(2x - 4) = 4x - 8
Samuel subtracts 2 from both sides of the equation to get 4(x - 2) = 4x - 10
Samuel distributes 4 on the left side of the equation to get 4x - 8 + 2 = 4x - 8
