Which of the following describes the correct process for solving the equation 2x + 6 = 22 and arrives at the correct solution? Divide both sides by 6 and then add 2. The solution is x = 8. Subtract 6 from both sides and then divide by 2. The solution is x = 8. Add 6 to both sides of the equation and then divide by 2. The solution is x = 6. Subtract 6 from both sides of the equation and then divide by 22. The solution is x = 16. Question 2 (Multiple Choice Worth 1 points) (01.07) Name the algebraic property demonstrated in the example below: 2 + x + y = x + 2 + y Commutative Property of Addition Associative Property of Addition Reflexive Property Transitive Property

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for number 2 I think its A

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Am I right for number 2?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@xlilly

OpenStudy (anonymous):

This is for #1 2x-6=22 Well first you're going to add six to both sides: 2x-6+6=22+6 2x=28 Then, you're going to divide both sides by 2: 2/2x=28/2 x=14 Select the answer you think is correct.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So C for 1 and A for 2?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

right??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes I would say so :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I have a few more questions

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{ y }{ 6 } +5=9 \]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

24 -24 78 -78

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the answers to the question I just gave you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@BioEpic @TinkerbellGirl

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@bibby

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I actually can't remember how to do this..I'm sorry

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh...

OpenStudy (bibby):

step 1 get the term involving the variable we're solving for on one side and isolated, what would you do first?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

get y by its self?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You do the opposite of whats being done..correct?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and @TinkerbellGirl can you do this one please? Name the algebraic property demonstrated in the example below: x • y • z = y • x • z Distributive Property Transitive Property Associative Property of Multiplication Commutative Property of Multiplication I say D

OpenStudy (bibby):

yeah, so in order to get rid of +5 you subtract 5 from both sides p.s. one question per post @Aly.mac101

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I don't know how

OpenStudy (bibby):

\[\large \frac{y}{6}+5=9\]\[\large -5=-5\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You subtract 5 from 5 which gets cancled out an then subtract 5 from 9

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the answer is -24?

OpenStudy (bibby):

y/6 = 4 y = 24

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh so 24?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Cuz don't you have to multiply..idk I'm probably wrong

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@bibby

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ya 24 @Aly.mac101

OpenStudy (bibby):

correct @TinkerbellGirl

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok can you guys help with some more

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Sweeet lol :), thanks @bibby and sure @Aly.mac101

OpenStudy (bibby):

nope. especially not if you're posting here

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ya make a new post

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok
