• y = 12.10x

• y = 1.15x + 10.95

• y = 10.95x + 1.15

Kylie and Rhoda are solving the equation 4(x - 8) = 7(x - 4). Kylie uses a first step that results in 4x - 32 = 7x - 28. Rhoda uses a first step that results in 4x - 8 = 7x - 4. Which statement about the first steps Kylie and Rhoda use is true?

• Kylie uses the associative property, resulting in a correct first step.

• Kylie uses the distributive property, resulting in a correct first step.

• Rhoda uses the associative property, resulting in a correct first step.

• Rhoda uses the distributive property, resulting in a correct first step.
