Question

What step is it called when numbers go from negative to positive in an equation? For example -x = -5 going to x = 5.

Answer 1

Answer:

  B. Multiplication or Division property of equality

Step-by-step explanation:

Both sides of the equation have been multiplied by -1. The multiplication property of equality tells you that multiplying both sides of the equation by the same number does not change the truth of the equation (and the variables retain their values).
