Respuesta :

The first step for solving this equation would be adding -2 to both sides of the equation.

Answer:

A. Add -2 to both sides

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason you need to add -2 to both sides is because if you add -2 to -2 it cancels out and you are left with x=18. But you need to add -2 to 18 too because them the equation won't be equal anymore.
