If the number is x, then:
6x+1= (x-1)^2

Now we just need to simplify it
6x+1=(x-1)*(x-1)
6x+1=x^2-2x+1
8x=x^2
8=x

The number is 8.

To check the answer
6*8+1=7^2
49=49
correct :)

Is 9x=270 addition property of equality or symmetric property?
Ede4ka [16]
This is the symmetric property, for you divide 9 to both sides to get x, instead of adding (addition property of equality)

So symmetric property should be your answer
Hope this helps
