Question

Mai says x is a number that makes Equation A true and also a number that makes Equation B true.
• Equation A: -3 (x + 7) = 24
• Equation B: x + 7 = -8
Which statement explains why this is true?
O A) Adding 3 to both sides of Equation A gives x + 7 = -8.
O B) Applying the distributive property to Equation A gives x + 7 = -8.
© C) Subtracting 3 from both sides of Equation A gives x + 7 = -8.
OD) Dividing both sides of Equation A by-3 gives x + 7 = -8.

    Answer:

    The Answer would be OD) Dividing both sides of Equation A by-3 gives x + 7 = -8.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Simplify by dividing both sides by negative 3 so -3(x+7)/-3 would be x+7 and 24/-3 would be -8,

    Thus, OD) is the answer.
