Jacob started that he solved the equation 2x+3=5 using addition and multiplication property of equality. which statement is true? a. jacob added -3 to both sises and multiplied both sides by 1/2. b. jacob added -3 to both sises and multiplied both sides by 2. c. acob added 3 to both sises and multiplied both sides by 1/2. d. acob added 3 to both sises and multiplied both sides by 2.

The correct option is A) Jacob added -3 to both sises and multiplied both sides by 1/2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

-------- (1)

Solution :

To find the value of x from equation (1) we have to first add both side -3 in equation (1), we get

Now, multiply both the side of equation (1) by

Therefore option A) is correct.
