Question

anyone willing to help me with some more algebra proofs ? pretty please.

Answer 1

its kind of a long one again

Given: 3(x-4) = 33
Prove: x = 15

i need to fill in both statements and reasons
5 statements ; 5 reasons.

A. Reflexive Property
B. Symmetric Property
C. x = 15
D. Transitive Property
E. Addition Property of Equality
F. Subtraction Property of Equality
G. 3x - 12 = 33
H. Multiplication Property of Equality
I. Division Property of Equality
J. Substitution Property
K. Additive Identity
L. 3x = 45
M. Multiplicative Identity
N. Commutative Property
O. 3x + 0= 45
P. Associative Property
Q. Distributive Property
R. Given
S. 3(x-4) = 33

Answer 2

okay well just start by solving the original expression

3(x-4) = 33 that was given

distribute that left hand side eh?

3x - 12 = 33

now lets add 12 to both sides right?

3x = 45

and to top it off we will divide by 3 on both sides

x = 15

Answer 3

i only had 4 statements though :P.... not sure how you would get 5

Answer 4

so in order of my 4 statements, their reasons are

given
distributive property
addition property of equality
division property of equality

Answer 5

oh i guess you could say the 3rd statement is

3x + 0 = 45

and the 4th statement is

3x = 45

Answer 6

alright. let me try to get this right!
i wanna make sure im understanding this.

statements:
1 - 3(x-4) = 33
2 - 3x - 12 = 33
3 - 3x + 0 = 45
4 - 3x = 45
5 - x = 15

... okay you beat me to it. lol

Answer 7

so the statements, in order are

3(x-4) = 33
3x - 12 - 33
3x + 0 = 45
3x = 45
x = 15



making the reasons, in order

given
distributive property
addition property of equality
transitive property
division property of equality

Answer 8

yep you got the statements right

Answer 9

reasons:
1 - given
2 - distributive property
3 - i missed three then ?
4 - addition property of equality
5 - division property of equality

Answer 10

ohp. four. but nevermind, i got it meow. lol

Answer 11

haha nice

Answer 12

ahh your the best dude!!

Answer 13

you're welcome!
