The steps below show the incomplete solution to find the value of x for the equation
7x − 3x − 4 = −1 + 21:

Step 1: 7x − 3x − 4 = −1 + 21
Step 2: 7x − 3x − 4 = 20
Step 3: 4x − 4 = 20

Which of these is most likely the next step?

4x = 24
4x = 16
4x = 5
4x = 80

in a problem such as this, we want to isolate the term x to one side.
therefore, the next step in the process will be to get the term "4" to the right side.
to do this, we add 4 to 20 since it is a negative.
4x=20+4

so the answer is 4x=24

hope this helps! :)

The most likely step after the step3 is 4x = 24.

Linear Equation in one variable:

The linear equation in one variable is an equation which is expressed in the form of ax + b = 0, where a and b are two integers, and x is a variable and has only one solution.

According to the given question

we have, a linear equation in variable x, 7x - 3x -4 = -1 + 21

For solving the above equation we will do the following steps

7x -3x -4 = -1 +21

Step1: 4x - 4  = 20

Step2: 4x - 4-20= 0

Step3: 4x -24 = 0

Step4: 4x = 24

Step5: x =24/4 =6

Hence, the most likely step after the step3 is 4x = 24.
