Nigel makes the claim that x=6 is the solution to the equation 4(5xβˆ’12)βˆ’7x=5x. His work to support his claim follows.

Given: 4(5xβˆ’12)βˆ’7x=5x

Step 1: 20xβˆ’48βˆ’7x=5x

Step 2: 20xβˆ’7xβˆ’48=5x

Step 3: 13xβˆ’48=5x

Step 4: 13xβˆ’13xβˆ’48=5xβˆ’13x

Step 5: 0βˆ’48=βˆ’8x

Step 6: 6=x

Which of the following justifications can be used to justify and support Nigel's work?
