Solution:

The equation solved by Bradley is

→4 (5x - 6) = 2 (8x + 10)

Step Work

1. 20 x - 24 = 16 x + 20 → [ Distributive property]

Taking variable on one side of equation

2. 4 x - 24 = 20 → [Subtraction property of equality.]

Taking constant on one side of equation

3. 4 x = 44 →[Addition property of equality.]

Dividing both sides by 4

4. x = 11 → [Division property of equality.]

Out of all the four options given, Fourth option [ 1. Distributive property. 2. Subtraction property of equality. 3. Addition property of equality. 4. Division property of equality ], completely satisfies the work done in equation.
