Equality Properties

• Multiplication Property of Equality
• Division Property of Equality
• Addition Property of Equality
• Subtract Property of Equality

Explanation:

Step 1: Define

2x + 5 ≥ 27

Step 2: Solve for x

1. Subtract Property of Equality: 2x + 5 - 5 ≥ 27 - 5
2. [Simplify] Subtract: 2x ≥ 22
3. Division Property of Equality: 2x/2 ≥ 22/2
4. [Simplify] Divide: x ≥ 11

Here we see that any value x greater than or equal to 11 would work as a solution to the inequality.
