Consider the two properties that you would use to solve an equation like 3x + 5 = 26. Which of the following is true? The standa
rd method for solving an equation like 3x + 5 = 26 is to use the Division Property of Equality and then the Subtraction Property of Equality. The standard method for solving an equation like 3x + 5 = 26 is to use the Subtraction Property of Equality and then the Addition Property of Equality. The standard method for solving an equation like 3x + 5 = 26 is to use the Subtraction Property of Equality and then the Division Property of Equality. The standard method for solvin
C) The standard method for solving an equation like 3 x + 5 = 26 is to use the Subtraction Property of Equality and then the Division Property of Equality.
The subtraction property of equality: if we subtract one side of the equation then we also must subtract from the other side of the equation. The division property of equality: if we divide one side of the equation by a number then we also must divide the other side by the same number. For this equation: 3 x + 5 = 26 3 x + 5 - 5 = 26 - 5 ( the Subtraction Property of Equality ) 3 x = 21 3 x : 3 = 21 : 3 ( the Division Property of Equality ) x = 7 Answer: C ) The standard method for solving an equation like 3 x + 5 = 26 is to use the Subtraction Property of Equality and then the Division Property of Equality.
