Which properties does not belong with the other three?

8=x/2 or 3=x divided by 3 or x-6=5 or x/3=9

Answer 1

Hi there!

I believe your answer is:

`x - 6 = 5`

Here’s why:

⸻⸻⸻⸻

I am assuming that '3=x divided by 3' is supposed to be
`3 = (x)/(3)`.

⸻⸻⸻⸻

The first, second, and fourth equations have x divided by a number. To isolate x, we would have to use the multiplication property of equality.

⸻⸻⸻⸻

For the third one (
`x-6=5`), the variable 'x' is being subtracted by 6. We would have to use the addition property of equality to isolate x.

Hope this helps you. I apologize if it’s incorrect.
