The first mistake in Maria's solution is seen in between Step 1 and Step 2
Given that Maria solved math homework problem incorrectly
the steps of the procedure followed by Maria is given as follows
Given 7(3x + 4 + x) - 4x + 8
Step 1: 7(4x + 4) - 4x + 8
Step 2: 28x + 4- 4x + 8
Step 3: 28x - 4x + 4 + 8
Step 4: 24x + 12
