Answer :
(1) distributive is the answer. Distributive property just means 4(x-1)=4x-4
4(x - 1) + 3 = 18
4(x) - 4(1) + 3 = 18
4x - 4 + 3 = 18
4x - 1 = 18
+ 1 + 1
4x = 19
4 4
x = 4³/₄
The answer is line 3.
4(x) - 4(1) + 3 = 18
4x - 4 + 3 = 18
4x - 1 = 18
+ 1 + 1
4x = 19
4 4
x = 4³/₄
The answer is line 3.
