Answer:

Addition Property of Equality

Explanation:

Given:3 ● m∠Q − 17 = 30, then 3 ● m∠Q = 47.

3 ●m∠Q - 17 = 30

Here we have to find the m∠Q. To find the angle use inverse operation of subtraction.

The inverse operation of subtraction is addition.

Here we have to get rid of -17, the inverse operation of "-" is "+"

So, add +17 on both sides, we get

3 ●m∠Q - 17 + 17 = 30 + 17

3 ●m∠Q = 47

Therefore, we used Addition property of equality.
