Noah is solving an equation and one of his moves is unacceptable. Here are themoves he made. 2(x+6)-4 = 8 + 6x original equation 2x + 12-4 = 8 + 6x apply the distributive property 2x+8 = 8 + 6x combine like terms 2x = 6x subtract 8 from both sides 2=6 divide each side by x Which answer best explains why the "divide each side by x step" is unacceptable? A. When you divide both sides of 2x = 6x by x you get 2x² = 6x² B. When you divide both sides of 2x = 6x by x it could lead us to think that there is no solution while in fact the solution is x = 0. C. When you divide both sides of 2x = 6x by x you get 2 = 6x. D. When you divide both sides of 2x = 6x by x it could lead us to think that there is no solution while in fact the solution is x = 3.
