Question

Select the appropriate property of equality for the statement. If a = b, then a • c = b • c.

A.) Substitution Property

B.) Symmetric Property

C.) Multiplication Property

D.) Reflexive Property

Answer 1

Answer: c. multiplication property.

Explanation:

A multiplication property of equality is a multiplying both sides of an equation by the same number does not change the equation.

`a*c=b*c`

For example:
`(t)/(5)=3`

`(5)/(1)* (t)/(5)=3*5`

`(5t)/(5)=t=3*5`

`t=3*5`

`t=15\\`

Hope this helps!
