Will give brainliest! which of the following correctly shows the beginning steps to solve this equation?

Step 1: 14x − 3 = 9Step 2: 14x = 12
Step 1: 14x − 6 = 9Step 2: 14x = 15
Step 1: 9x − 3 = 9Step 2: 9x = 12
Step 1: 7x − 1 = 9Step 2: 7x = 10

Answer 1

2(7x - 3) = 9

step 1 : distribute thru the parenthesis......14x - 6 = 9
step 2 : add 6 to both sides.......14x = 15
