Question

Identify the property of equality that justifies the missing step in solving the equation below

Answer 1

property of equality that justifies the missing step is Division property of equality

Explanation:

We need to Identify the property of equality that justifies the missing step

`28=4x-8\\28+8=4x\\36=4x`

Now, we divide both sides by 4 using division property of equality as it states that
`(a)/(c)=(b)/(c)`

`(36)/(4)=(4x)/(4)\\9=x`

So, The property of equality that justifies the missing step is Division property of equality
