Given: 3(x-4)=2x+7 prove: x=19 proof: statements reasons a. 3(x−4)=2x+73(x−4)=2x+7 a. given b. 3x−12=2x+73x−12=2x+7 b. ? c. ? c. subtraction property d. x=19 d. ? what is reason b? select one: a. distributive property b. multiplication property

The distributive property is the one that lets you remove parentheses by multiplying the factor outside by every term inside. The distributive property is used in step b.


The multiplication property of equality is the one that lets you multiply both sides of the equation by the same value. It is not used in the solution of this equation.

Aand b are correctly balanced reactions. they have the same number of atoms in both sides of the reaction

It’s 24.6 after you round to the nearest tenths the answer should be 25.0
