Question

Identify the property of equality that justifies the missing step to solve the given equation.Equation3x + (1 - 8) = 124r-I8 = 12StepsOriginal equationAssociative property of addition4r= 20r=5Division property of equalitya. subtraction property of equalityb. addition property of equalityc. division property of equalityd. multiplication property of equality

Answer 1

From the attached image;

`4x-8=12`

The next step is to add 8 to both sides of the equation to remove -8.

`\begin{gathered} 4x-8+8=12+8 \\ 4x=20 \end{gathered}`

Since we added to the equation.

The step is an addition property of equality
