Q18Multiple choice
Shifting one term from one side of an equation to another side with a change of sign is known as
- (a)commutativity
- (b)transposition
- (c)distributivity
- (d)associativity One-step equations can be solved by applying a single inverse operation. To solve two-step equations, apply more than one inverse operation. The order of operations for 2x + 5 = 7 is to start with x, multiply by 2 and add 5. The result is 7. Order of Operations: x multiply by 2 add 5 7 To solve the equation, inverse the steps. Start with 7, subtract 5, then divide by 2 to find x. Solve the equation: 7 subtract 5 divide by 2 x 15-04-2018 In Questions 19 to 48, fill in the blanks to make the statements true.
