ok, so for example, we have an equation of 4x+5 = 17. To solve for x, we first subtract 5 on both sides. This is called Subtraction Property of Equality.

To keep the balance, add 5 to each side. Example 2. Solve
the equation
-8 = n - (-4). Solution: After simplifying the right side of the
equation
, use the
subtraction property of equality
to
subtract
4 from both sides of the
equation
