Question

What algebraic property are these?

1.)5x + 24 = 59
2.)5x + 0 = 35
3.)5x = 35
4.) x = 7

Answer 1

I hope this helps you


5x=59-24

5x=35

5x÷5=35÷5

x=7

Answer 2

1.)5x + 24 = 59
2.)5x + 0 = 35 ----- subtraction property of equality (you subtracted 24 from both sides)
3.)5x = 35 --- neutral element of the addition (when you add zero the value does not change)
4.) x = 7 ---- division property of equality (you divided by 5 both sides)
