Select the statements that best describe the next possible step Jenna can use to solve this equation.
Question 3 options:
Subtract 88x from both sides of the equation.
Subtract 20 from both sides of the equation.
Divide by 20 on both sides.
Multiply both sides by 11.
Subtract 88x from both sides. This will put all x coefficients on one side of the equation, and all constants on the other side, allowing her to easily find the value of x from there.
The equation would then become [tex]-77x = -20[/tex]
