<h3>Multiplication Property of Equality is the missing reason</h3>
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that,
five thirds times x plus 2 equals negative 3
Therefore,
<em><u>Multiplication Property of Equality</u></em>
The Multiplication Property of Equality means that, if both sides of an equation is multiplied by same number, the equation still remains equal
Multiply both sides by 3
<em><u>Subtraction Property of Equality</u></em>
The Subtraction Property of Equality means that, we can subtract the same number from both sides of equation and the equation will still be true
5x + 6 = -9
Subtract 6 from both sides
5x + 6 - 6 = -9 - 6
5x = -15
<em><u>Division Property of Equality</u></em>
The Division Property of Equality means that, if both sides of an equation is divided by same number, the equation still remains true
5x = -15
Divide both sides by 5
x = -3
