Which property would you use to solve x - 15 -3?
18
What property is required to solve x plus twelve equals twenty four?
Subtraction property if x+12=24 the subtraction property lets us minus 12 from both sides to get x+12-12=24-12 the twelves on both sides cancel each other out by the way, to get x=12, your answer
What is the destributive property?
The distributive property is a property that connects multiplication and addition. In symbols: a x (b + c) = (a x b) + (a + c). We use this property on a daily basis, when we do a multiplication with pencil and paper, with numbers of more than one digit. For example, 2 x 12 = 2 x (10 + 2) = (2 x 10) + (2 x 2). It is also very useful in that it helps solve different algebraic problems.
How do you factor with the zero factor property?
The zero product property is used to solve equations using factoring. Ex x2 + 5x = 4 .... 1st rearrange to = 0 x2 - 3x- 4 = 0 .... now factor left side (x-4)(x+1) = 0 .... now make 2 separate equations and solve x-4 = 0 so x = 4 .... x+1 = 0 so x = -1
What action would you use to solve x 4 16 what property justifies that action?
x*4 = 16Divide both sides by 4 to give x = 4Equals multiplied by equals are equal.
