Jesse solved the equation 42x+5) = 8 as shown. 4 + 25 + 5 = 8

22 + 5) = 4

Step 1

22 + 5 = 4

Or

20 - 5 = 4

Step 2

Step 3

21 = -1

Or

2.0 = 9

Step 4

Which statement is true about Jesse's solution?

A Jesse made a mistake in step 1. He should have rewritten the equation as 4 + (2x+5) = 8 and 4 + (2x + 5) = -8.

OB. Jesse made a mistake in step 2. He should have rewritten the equation as 2x+5 = 4 and 2x + 5 = -4.

OC. Jesse made a mistake in step 4. His solutions should be x=-2 or x=18.
