You begin solving the equation \(4 - 5x = 59\) by subtracting 4 from both sides. Which is the best choice for Step 2?

4 − 5 x = 59 ∣ ( − 4 ) 4 − 4 − 5 x = 59 − 4 − 5 x = 55 / : ( − 5 ) x = − 5 55 ​ x = − 11

After subtracting 4 from both sides of the equation 4 − 5 x = 59 , the best Step 2 is to divide both sides by -5. This isolates the variable x , making it easier to solve. The next steps would lead you to the solution x = − 11 .
