Question

Which of the following shows the Addition Property of Equality?

Answer 1

By definition we have to:

Addition Property of Equality is a property that allows you to add the same number to both sides of the equation. This number is added on both sides in order not to alter the equality.

Therefore, the following equation uses this property:

$16x-2 + 2 = 18 + 2$

We note that 2 is added to both sides of equality.

Rewriting we have:

$16x = 20$

Answer:

the following shows the Addition Property of Equality

B.) 16x-2 + 2 = 18 + 2

16x = 20
