Algebra Properties of Equality
-
Addition Property of Equality: If two values are equal, adding the same amount to both sides keeps the equality true.
-
Example: For the equation (3x - 3 = 12), adding 3 to both sides results in (3x = 15).
-
Subtraction Property of Equality: If two values are equal, subtracting the same amount from both sides maintains the equality.
-
Example: For the equation (2x + 4 = 16), subtracting 4 from both sides leads to (2x = 12).
-
Multiplication Property of Equality: If two values are equal, multiplying both sides by the same non-zero number keeps the equality intact.
-
Example: If (a = b), then multiplying both by (c) results in (ac = bc).
