Keisha solved the following equation: 4x - 2x + 8 = 6(x + 4)

Which step has an incorrect justification?
(9th grade-Algebra 1)

Remark

The second one. The second step removes the brackets on the right. It uses the distributive property which puts back the common factor that was taken out of the two terms 6x and 24. Quite often the distributive property is useful when presenting a problem to be solved.

The associative property is more of an order thing and that is very useful sometimes as well what it says is that if you have three numbers a + b + c the order which you combine things does not matter.

For example 3 + 4 + 5 could be combined as 3 + 4 = 7;  7 + 5 = 12 or 3 + 5 = 8, 8 + 4 = 12.  

The associative property is useful when adding fractions.

Step-by-step explanation:

there are 70 more legs than eyes at the dog show (196 – 126 = 70). dogs have two more legs than eyes, and humans have the same number of legs as eyes. thus 70 is twice the number of dogs at the show, so the number of dogs is half of 70, which is 35. to get the number of humans, subtract 35 from 63: 63 – 35 = 28.
