Question

For each algebraic expression, select the property that could be used to solve it

x-3=-5

6x=72

x/5=3

properties are

addition property of equality,multiplication property of equality, distributive property and commutative property.

Answer 1

addition property of equality

(this would be division property of equality, but its not an option you gave)

multiplication property of equality

Answer 2

1.addition property of equality

2.distributive property of equality

3.multiplication property of equality

Explanation:

We are given that some algebraic expression

We have to select the property that can be used to solve given algebraic expression.

1.
`x-3=-5`

`x=-5+3=-2`

Using addition property of equality.

2.
`6x=72`

`6x=30+42=6(5+7)`

Using distributive property of equality.

Cancel 6 on bot sides

`x=5+7=12`

3.
`(x)/(5)=3`

`x=3* 5=15`

Using multiplication property of equality.
