Answer:

3 + 4x = 36----->No

(4.3)+(4 . x)= 36------>Yes

4(3 + x)= 144--------->No

3+ x = 9-------> Yes

12 + x = 36------>No

12 + 4x = 36------->Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is

[tex]4(3 + x) = 36[/tex]

A correct first step is to expand the LHS to get:

[tex]12 + 4x = 36[/tex]

Or to divide through by 4 to get:

[tex]3 + x = 9[/tex]

Or just distribute to get:

[tex]4 \cdot 3 + 4 \cdot \: x = 36[/tex]
