I AM GIVING + 20 POINTS !!!!! PLEASE ANSWER SOON!!!!! Which is NOT a good reason to perform step 1 in the solution shown? equation: 4x = 88 step 1: 4x/4 = 88/4 step 2: x = 22 a. divide by 4, because 4 is a factor of 88. b. dividing 4x by 4 isolates x on one side of the equation. c. dividing is the inverse of multiplying d. dividing both sides by 4 keeps the equation balanced
