Question

For each algebraic equation, select the property that could be used to solve it: 1. x-3=-5 2. 6x=72 3. x/5=3

Answer 1

x - 3 = -5........addition property....because u add -3 to both sides

6x = 72.....either division property...because u divide both sides by 6.
                 or multiplication property...because u multiply both sides by 1/6

x/5 = 3.....multiplication  property....because u multiply both sides by 5
