Which equation is equivalent to 

7(b − 4) = 5(b + 4) + 6? 



7b − 4 = 5b + 10

7b − 4 = 5b + 24

7b − 28 = 5b + 26

7b− 28 = 5b + 50

Steven needs to solve the equation 6x + 10 = 2(x - 5).

Which equations represent a first step Steven could use to solve the original equation?

Select all that apply. 

Steven subtracts 2 from both sides of the equation to get 6x + 8 = x - 5. 

Steven subtracts 10 from both sides of the equation to get 6x = 2(x - 15). 

Steven distributes 2 on the right side of the equation to get 6x + 10 = 2x - 10.

Steven divides both sides of the equation by 10 to get 6x + 1 = 5(x - 5). 

Steven divides both sides of the equation by 2 to get 3x + 5 = x - 5.
