Question

For the equation 17h+6=40, select the appropriate property of equality to move the constant term to the right side of the equation.(20pt) A. Division Property of Equality- B. Subtraction Property of Equality - C. Multiplication Property of Equality- D. Addition Property of Equality

Answer 1

Answer:

Option B.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is

$17h+6=40$

We need to find the property of equality to move the constant term to the right side of the equation.

In the given equation 6 is the constant term on the left side.

Using subtraction property of equality, subtract 6 from both sides.

$17h+6-6=40-6$

$17h=34$

So, the appropriate property of equality to move the constant term to the right side of the equation is Subtraction Property of Equality.

Therefore, the correct option is B.
