A = b is given to us
Multiply both sides by c to get
a = b
a*c = b*c
The rule to multiply both sides by c is the multiplicative property of equality
Then on the right side, replace c with d. This replacement is possible due to the fact that c = d. This is using the substitution property.
So we go from
a*c = b*c
to this
a*c = b*d
Answer: The answer is 4.5
To find this, we simply multiply 75 by 2/5
75 * 2/5 = 75*2/5
150/5 = 30
She will use 30 gallons of paint.
To do this we need to move 10 to other side. To accomplish this you just need to add 10 to both side since (-10)
so
A+ 10 = c -10 + 10
we get
A+ 10 = c
lets say it wasn't -10 but positive 10.
A = c + 10 then we would subtract 10 from both sides
A -10 = c + 10 - 10
we get
A - 10 = C
Yep, sure. Which question?
