Q:

Indicate which property is illustrated in step 8. A. Subtraction property of equality B. Simplification C. Distributive property D. Division property of equalitystep 8: -3x/-3 = -7/3

Accepted Solution

A:
Answer: Option 'D' is correct.Step-by-step explanation:Since we have given that [tex]-3x=7[/tex]After Step 8 it becomes,[tex]\dfrac{-3}{-3}=\dfrac{-7}{3}[/tex]It indicated the Division property of equality.To find the value of x, we need to divide the left hand side and right hand side by -3.So, this property is known as "Division property of equality":Hence, Option 'D' is correct.
