Drag each equation to show if it could be a correct first step to solving the equation 4(3+x)=36.

The following could be a correct first step to solving the equation 4(3+x)=36
Step-by-step explanation:
Here we have , to that which equation fits good for next step solutions for the given equation as [tex]4(3+x)=36[/tex]:
case 1: [tex]12+4x=36[/tex] :
Yes, this equation can be obtained from [tex]4(3+x)=36[/tex] as
⇒ [tex](4.3)+(4.x) = 36[/tex]
⇒ [tex](12)+(4x) = 36[/tex]
case 2: [tex]3+x=9[/tex] :
Yes, this equation can be obtained from [tex]4(3+x)=36[/tex] as
⇒ [tex]\frac{4(3+x)}{4}=\frac{36}{4}[/tex]
⇒ [tex]3+x=\frac{36}{4}[/tex]
⇒ [tex]3+x=9[/tex]
case 3: [tex]12+x=36[/tex]:
No, not possible as [tex]4(3+x)=36[/tex] can be written as
⇒ [tex]12+4x=36[/tex] Not as [tex]12+x=36[/tex] .
case 4: [tex]3+4x=36[/tex]:
Not possible as [tex]4(3+x)=36[/tex] can be written as
⇒ [tex]12+4x=36[/tex] Not as [tex]3+4x=36[/tex] .
case 5: [tex]4(3+x)=144[/tex]:
Not possible as [tex]4(3+x)=36[/tex] can be written as
⇒ [tex]4(3+x)=36[/tex] Not as [tex]4(3+x)=144[/tex].
case 6: [tex](4.3)+(4.x)=36[/tex] :
Yes, this equation can be obtained from [tex]4(3+x)=36[/tex] as
⇒ [tex](4.3)+(4.x)=36[/tex]
