“Four times the difference of a number and 7 is 32”
Translation-
4(x-7)=32
It would be d because you would subtract 52 from 17 to get the answer then add the number you got to 17 to get 52.
Answer/Step-by-step explanation:
The following steps to solve equation given by join are shown below including the property of numbers applied for each reasons:
4(2a + 3) = -3(a - 1) + 31 - 11a ----› Given
Apply the distributive property to open the parentheses
4*2a + 4*3 = -3*a -3*-1 + 31 - 11a
8a + 12 = -3a + 3 + 31 - 11a ----› Distributive property
Combine like terms together
8a + 12 = 3 + 31 -3a - 11a
8a + 12 = 34 - 14a ---› Combining like terms
Add 14a to both sides
8a + 12 + 14a = 34 - 14a + 14a
22a + 12 = 34 ----› Addition property
Subtract 12 from both sides
22a + 12 - 12 = 34 - 12
22a = 22 ----› subtraction property of equality
Divide both sides by 22
22a/22 = 22/22
a = 1 ----› Division property of Equality
