Ciara solved the exponential equation 3x+1 = 15 and her work is shown below. What is the first step she did incorrectly? (3 points) Step 1: log 3x+1 = log15 Step 2: (x + 1)log 3 = log15 Step 3: log3 = log 15 over x plus 1 Step 4: 0.477121 = 1.176091 over x plus 1 Step 5: 0.477121(x + 1) = 1.176091 Step 6: x + 1 = 1.176091 over 0.477121 Step 7: x + 1 = 2.464975 Step 8: x = 1.464975
