In the equation x + 7 = 12, 7 is being added to the variable, x. How should you show your work to isolate the variable and solve the equation?

• Subtract 7 from both sides. The solution is x = 5

• Multiply both sides by 7. The solution is x = 84

• Add 7 to both sides. The solution is x = 19

• Subtract 12 from both sides. The solution is x = 9
