To solve the equation [tex]\(\sqrt{6x + 4} = 8\)[/tex], follow these steps in order:

1. Square both sides (Step F):
[tex]\[ (\sqrt{6x + 4})^2 = 8^2 \][/tex]
Squaring both sides simplifies to:
[tex]\[ 6x + 4 = 64 \][/tex]

2. Subtract 4 from both sides (Step D):
[tex]\[ 6x + 4 - 4 = 64 - 4 \][/tex]
Simplifying this gives:
[tex]\[ 6x = 60 \][/tex]

3. Divide by 6 from both sides (Step C):
[tex]\[ \frac{6x}{6} = \frac{60}{6} \][/tex]
Simplifying this gives:
[tex]\[ x = 10 \][/tex]

Thus, the correct way to solve the equation is: First F, then D, then C.
