Name the property used in the following equation
54=m⇒m=54
Your answer:
Correct answer:Symmetric Property
❌ Incorrect. Give it another look!
This demonstrates the Symmetric Property, which states that if one number is equal to another, then the second is equal to the first.
That is, if a=b, then b=a.
The formal statement is: For all a,b∈R,if a=b then b=a.
This demonstrates the Cancellation Property w.r.t. Multiplication: if the same value is multiplied on both sides of an equation, it can be removed (canceled) without affecting the equality.
That is, if a×c=b×c then a=b.
Formally: For all a,b,c∈R,a∘c=b∘c⇒a=b where ∘ is ×.
Name the property used in the following equation
x=−12⇒x+(−1)=−12+(−1)
Your answer:
Correct answer:Additive Property
❌ Incorrect. Give it another look!
This demonstrates the Additive Property of Equality: adding the same value to both sides of an equation preserves equality.
That is, if a=b, then a+c=b+c.
The formal statement is: For all a,b,c∈R,a=b⇒a+c=b+c.
Name the property used in the following equation
h=13⇒h×(−11)=13×(−11)
Your answer:
Correct answer:Multiplicative Property
❌ Incorrect. Give it another look!
This demonstrates the Multiplicative Property of Equality: multiplying both sides of an equation by the same number preserves equality.
That is, if a=b, then a×c=b×c.
The formal statement is: For all a,b,c∈R,a=b⇒a×c=b×c.
Name the property used in the following equation
−13=s⇒s=−13
Your answer:
Correct answer:Symmetric Property
❌ Incorrect. Give it another look!
This demonstrates the Symmetric Property, which states that if one number is equal to another, then the second is equal to the first.
That is, if a=b, then b=a.
The formal statement is: For all a,b∈R,if a=b then b=a.
Name the property used in the following equation
m=15⇒m+10=15+10
Your answer:
Correct answer:Additive Property
❌ Incorrect. Give it another look!
This demonstrates the Additive Property of Equality: adding the same value to both sides of an equation preserves equality.
That is, if a=b, then a+c=b+c.
The formal statement is: For all a,b,c∈R,a=b⇒a+c=b+c.
Name the property used in the following equation
x=a⇒x×5=a×5
Your answer:
Correct answer:Multiplicative Property
❌ Incorrect. Give it another look!
This demonstrates the Multiplicative Property of Equality: multiplying both sides of an equation by the same number preserves equality.
That is, if a=b, then a×c=b×c.
The formal statement is: For all a,b,c∈R,a=b⇒a×c=b×c.
Name the property used in the following equation
68=68
Your answer:
Correct answer:Reflexive Property
❌ Incorrect. Give it another look!
This demonstrates the Reflexive Property, which states that any real number is equal to itself.
That is, a=a.
The full mathematical statement is: For all a∈R,a=a.
This demonstrates the Cancellation Property w.r.t. Addition: if the same value is added to both sides of an equation, it can be removed (canceled) without affecting the equality.
That is, if a+c=b+c then a=b.
Formally: For all a,b,c∈R,a∘c=b∘c⇒a=b where ∘ is +.
Name the property used in the following equation
2=2
Your answer:
Correct answer:Reflexive Property
❌ Incorrect. Give it another look!
This demonstrates the Reflexive Property, which states that any real number is equal to itself.
That is, a=a.
The full mathematical statement is: For all a∈R,a=a.
This demonstrates the Cancellation Property w.r.t. Addition: if the same value is added to both sides of an equation, it can be removed (canceled) without affecting the equality.
That is, if a+c=b+c then a=b.
Formally: For all a,b,c∈R,a∘c=b∘c⇒a=b where ∘ is +.
Name the property used in the following equation
z=−1⇒z+11=−1+11
Your answer:
Correct answer:Additive Property
❌ Incorrect. Give it another look!
This demonstrates the Additive Property of Equality: adding the same value to both sides of an equation preserves equality.
That is, if a=b, then a+c=b+c.
The formal statement is: For all a,b,c∈R,a=b⇒a+c=b+c.
Name the property used in the following equation
m=−513⇒m×(−711)=−513×(−711)
Your answer:
Correct answer:Multiplicative Property
❌ Incorrect. Give it another look!

Name the property used in the following equation
w=x∧x=−6⇒w=−6
Your answer:
Correct answer:Transitive Property
❌ Incorrect. Give it another look!
This demonstrates the Transitive Property of Equality: if one quantity equals a second, and the second equals a third, then the first equals the third.
That is, if a=b∧b=c, then a=c.
The formal statement is: For all a,b,c∈R,a=b∧b=c⇒a=c.
