Question

What is the first step that shows an error in the solution to the equation

Answer 1

If they equal then we know our solution is correct .if not then our solution is wrong

Answer 2

The correct way to do this is,

DO THE FIRST EQUATION FIRST SO THAT YOU DONT GET OVER WHELMED.

STEP1: 3x+4-4=3x -2-4= -6

STEP2: 3x-6

Now, divide both sides by 3.

STEP3: 3x/3 -6/3

STEP4: x=-2

SO your answer will be x=-2.
