Answer:

The subtraction property of equality

Option A is correct

Explanation:

The given equation is:

12 - x = 7x + 32

Subtract 12 from both sides

12 - 12 - x = 7x + 32 - 12

-x = 7x + 20 (Step 1)

From step 1 above, subtract 7x from both sides

-x - 7x = 7x - 7x + 20

-8x = 20 (Step 2)

Since we subtracted 7x from both sides to get step 2, the justification for step 2 is the subtraction property of equality
