Q:

Which of the following equations demonstrate the multiplication property of equality for the equation x = 2? Check all that apply. 1. x(3) = 2(4)2. x(5) = 103. x(1.5) = 2(2)4. x(0.5) = 2(0.5)5. x(12) = 12

Accepted Solution

A:
Answer:2. x(5) = 104. x(0.5) = 2(0.5)Step-by-step explanation:Given: x = 2We need to check all that apply.1. x (3) = 2(4)Replace x by 2, we et 2(3) = 2(4)6 = 8, which is not true.2. x(5) = 10Replace x by 2, we get2(5) = 1010 = 10Which is true.3. x(1.5) = 2(2)Replace x by 2, we get2(1.5) = 2(2)3 = 4, which is not true.4. x(0.5) = 2(0.5)Replace x by 2, we get2(0.5) = 2(0.5)1 = 1, which is true.5. x(12) = 12Replace x by 2, we get2(12) = 1224 = 12 which is not true.Therefore, the following equations demonstrate the multiplication property.2. x(5) = 104. x(0.5) = 2(0.5)
