Drag each equation to show if it could be a correct first step to solving the equation 3(x+8)=42.

The 2nd, 3rd, and last equations could be a possible first step.

The rest are no's.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the second equation, the 3 was distributed.

In the 3rd, it was separately distributed.

In the last, both sides were divided by 3.

The rest are knows because every equation gives us enough information.

given that triangle abc is transformed two times to get triangle

a"b"c"

first abc is transformed in to a'b'c' as follows:

the coordinates of a are (1,-1) and transformed into a'(-1,1)

similarly b (4,-2) became b'(-4,2) and

c(7,-2) became c'(-7,2)

i.e. (x,y) becomes (-x,-y)

this is nothing but reflection about a point here origin.

thus first transformation is reflection on the origin.

next is exactly shifting 3 units down
