Answer:

The first step to solve the equation Addition Property of Equality.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation

[tex]\frac{x}{4}-\frac{3}{4}=16[/tex]

we have to find the first step to solve the above equation.

To solve the above equation we have to combine the like terms here we have to combine the constant terms.

[tex]\frac{x}{4}-\frac{3}{4}=16[/tex]

[tex]\text{Therefore, to solve the equation we have to add }\frac{3}{4}\text{ on both sides}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{x}{4}-\frac{3}{4}+\frac{3}{4}=16+\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{x}{4}=\frac{67}{4}[/tex]

[tex]x=67[/tex]

Hence, the first step to solve the equation is the

Addition Property of Equality
