Answer 1

Any ideas?

Answer 2

weeelll i kinda think its a but im not sure @skullpatrol

Answer 3

You are right :)

Answer 4

are you sure because im not @skullpatrol

Answer 5

Yes, I am sure because if you add -3x to both sides of the equation then you will get your answer.

Answer 6

Given: $$3x + y = 1$$
Solve for y.
$$-3x+3x+y=-3x+1$$ $$0 +y=-3x+1$$
$$y=-3x+1$$

Answer 7

This is known as the addition property of equality;
where you are allowed to add the same real number to both sides of the equation.

Answer 8

If a,b and c are any real numbers and a = b,

then
a + c = b +c and
c + a = c + b.

If the same number is added to equal numbers the sums are equal.
