Answer 4

Okay, I understand now. Thanks! (I was eating lunch, so that's why I was gone.) Could you please confirm the following?
They want me to complete the two-column proof.

Given: 11x - 6y = -1; x = 8
Prove: 89/6 = y

After the Given they state the steps. They want me to state what property each step is.

88 - 6y = -1 This is Substitution I think.
-6 = -89 I'm not sure about this one.
y = 86/6 Division Property
89/6 = y Symmetric

Am I correct?
