Question

The division property of equality could be used to solve which of the following equations?

A. x^2+7x+6=0
B. 10x=3
C. 4-x=7
D. x/5=9

Answer 1

B. 10x = 3.....divide both sides by 10
x = 3/10

the division property basically states that if u divide both sides by the same non-zero number, the sides remain equal

Answer 2

The division property of equality could be used to solve
`10x=3`

Explanation:

10x = 3

We can isolate the x on the left side by dividing both sides of the equation by 10.

So,

`(10x)/(10) =(3)/(10)`

Cancel out x's on the left

`x=(3)/(10)`
