30 POINTS AND BRAINLESST!!!!!!!!!!: 3. Andre and Diego were each trying to solve 2x + 6= 3x - 8. Describe the first step
they each make to the equation.

a. The result of Andre’s first step was -x + 6= -8.

b. The result of Diego’s first step was 6 = x - 8.

REQUIRED: STEP BY STEP EXPLANATION: 2 sentences minimum!

Answer :

a) Andre takes away ‘3x’ from both sides.
2x+6 = 3x-8
(-3x). (-3x)
-x + 6 = -8

b) Diego takes away ‘2x’ from both sides.
2x+6 = 3x-8
(-2x). (-2x)

6 = x -8

Answer:

The first step was the combine the like terms; in this example he is subtracting the 3x on both sides of the =.

If you were to solve the equation it would look like this:

2x+6=3x-8

-3x -3x

-x+6=-8

-6 -6

-x=-14

/-1 /-1

x=14
