Add 6 to both sides.
Add 6 to both sides.

Subtract 6 from both sides.
Subtract 6 from both sides.

Divide both sides by 6.
Divide both sides by 6.

Divide both sides by −3
.

The second step in solving the equation -3(y + 6) = 21 would be to divide both sides by -3.

Are you sure that's the second step?

Apologies for the mistake. The correct second step in solving the equation -3(y + 6) = 21 is to subtract 6 from both sides.

A) For which equation is the order of steps to first divide both sides by 6 and then to add 8 to both sides?(1 point)

6(x − 8) = 48
6 left parenthesis x minus 8 right parenthesis equals 48

6x − 8 = 48
6 x minus 8 equals 48

6(x + 8) = 48
6 left parenthesis x plus 8 right parenthesis equals 48

8(x − 6) = 48

The equation in which the order of steps is to first divide both sides by 6 and then add 8 to both sides is: 6(x − 8) = 48

A)For which equation is the order of steps to first divide both sides by 2 and then to subtract 10 from both sides?(1 point)

2x + 10 = 16
2 x plus 10 equals 16

10(x + 2) = 16
10 Left Parenthesis x plus 2 Right Parenthesis equals 16

2(x − 10) = 16
2 Left Parenthesis x minus 10 Right Parenthesis equals 16

2(x + 10) = 16
