Answer:

Step 2 and step 4

Explanation:

Isabella solved the following equation:
4x-2x + 8 = 6x + 24

Step Work Justification


4x-2x + 8 = 6x + 24 - given

1.
2x+8=6x+24 - distributive property

2.
2x-6x+8=6x-6x+24 - subtraction property of equality

3.
-4x+8=24 - combine like terms

4.
-4x+8-8=24-8 - subtraction property of equality

5.
-4x=16 - combine like terms

6.
x=-4 - division property of equality

Two false steps 2 and 4
