Jonny is solving this equation for n: 8 + 3n = 20 His first step is to subtract 8 from both sides of the equation.

Why? (1 point)

8 is the first term in the equation.

8 is attached to 3n by subtraction.

He needs to reverse the order of operations.

He needs to follow the order of operations.

The correct answer is: He needs to isolate the variable n on one side of the equation. By subtracting 8 from both sides, he eliminates the constant term on the left side, leaving only 3n on that side. This allows him to solve for n by dividing both sides by 3.
