Antoinette solves the linear equation 3 (x minus 3) + 2 x + 9 = 2 x + 2 (x minus 1) using the steps shown below. Step 1: 3 x minus 3 + 2 x + 9 = 2 x + 2 (x minus 1)
Step 2: 5 x + 6 = 4 x minus 1
Step 3: 5 x minus 4 x = negative 1 minus 6
Step 4: x = negative 7

She checks her solution by substituting –7 for x in the original equation. She determines that her answer is incorrect. Which best describes Antoinette’s error?
