Pls help asap Henry showed all the steps he took to solve the equation.

4 (negative one-half x + 7) + 5 x = 15

Step

Simplified Expression

1

-Negative 2 x + 28 + 5 x = 15

2

3 x + 28 = 15

3

3 x = 15

4

x = 5

Sammy tried to verify the solution by substituting x = 5 back into the original equation. It did not result in a true statement. Which explains why Henry’s solution is incorrect?

Step 1 is wrong because the distributive property of equality was used incorrectly.

Step 2 is wrong because the addition property of equality was used incorrectly.

Step 3 is wrong because the subtraction property of equality was used incorrectly.

Step 4 is wrong because the division property was used incorrectly.
