Answer:
- Commutative Property of Addition.-
- 2 + 3 = 3 + 2
- Commutative Property of Multiplication.- ex. 5 × 7 = 7 × 5
- Associative Property of Addition.- ex.(2 + 3) + 6 = 2 + (3 + 6)
- Associative Property of Multiplication.- ex. (7 × 3) × 10 = 7 × (3 × 10)
- Distributive Properties of Addition Over Multiplication- ex. 2 × (2 + 8) = 2 × 2 + 2 × 8
- (2 + 8) × 10 = 2 × 10 + 8 × 10
- The reciprocal of a non zero real number a is 1/a.- ex. reciprocal of 5 is 1/5 and 5 × (1/5) = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Justify means plug answer in and verify
so distribute 8(3-7x)=24-56x
143=7+24-56x
143=31-56x
minus 31 both sides
112=-56x
divide both sides by -56
-2=x
justify
plug it back
143=7+8(3-7x)
143=7+8(3-7(-2))
143=7+8(3-(-14))
143=7+8(3+14)
143=7+8(17)
143=7+136
143=143
true
x=-2
