Question

Which of the following steps indicates the addition property of equality while solving the equation –1 – 6x = x – 15? Question 4 options: A) x = 14∕2 B) –1 – 6x + 15 = x – 15 + 15 C) –1 – 6x = x – 15 D) 23 – 6x – 24 = x – 15

Answer 1

-1-6x+15=x-15+15

Step-by-step explanation:I took the test

Answer 2

B) -1-6 x +15 = x - 15 +15

Explanation:

Explanation:-

Given equation is –1 – 6 x = x – 15

By addition property of equality

⇒ - 1 - 6 x + 15 = x - 15 +15

⇒ - 6 x + 14 = x

subtracting 'x' on both sides ,we get

⇒ - 6 x -x +14 =0

⇒ - 7 x +14 =0

⇒ -7 x = - 14

Dividing '-7' on both sides , we get

x = 2

The solution of given equation is x = 2
