Linear equation: -1 2
(6x + 10) = 13
Step 1: –3x – 5 = 13
Step 2: –3x = 18
Step 3: x = –6
Which sequence describes the inverse operations used for steps 2 and 3 to solve the linear equation?
the addition property of equality and then the division property of equality
the addition property of equality and then the multiplication property of equality
the subtraction property of equality and then the division property of equality
the subtraction property of equality and then the multiplication property of equality

The right answer is:

the addition property of equality and then the division property of equality

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation and steps to solve it are:

Step 1: –3x – 5 = 13

Step 2: –3x = 18

Step 3: x = –6

In step two, -5 has to be removed from left hand side of the equation so additional property of equality will be used i.e. adding 5 on both sides

Similarly in the third step, to remove -3 with x , division property of equality will be used i.e. dividing both sides by -3

Hence,

The right answer is:

the addition property of equality and then the division property of equality

step-by-step explanation:

y = - 6

step-by-step explanation:

given the point (- 2, y) lies on the graph then it is a solution of it's equation.

substitute x = - 2 into the equation for value of y

y = 3(- 2) = 3 × - 2 = - 6

the point on the graph is (- 2, 6)
