Which property of equality was used to solve this equation? X-5 = -14
X-5 + 5 = -14 + 5
x= -9

OA. addition property of equality

OB. subtraction property of equality

OC. multiplication property of equality

OD. division property of equality

addition property of equality

Step-by-step explanation:

X-5 = -14

Add 5 to each side using the addition property of equality

X-5 + 5 = -14 + 5

x= -9

infinitely many solutions

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given the equation;

2(2x + 3) = -4 + 2(2x + 5)

we need to determine the value of x.

2(2x + 3), we expand this expression to obtain 4x + 6

similarly 2(2x + 5) will become 4x + 10

now we have;

4x + 6 = -4 + 4x + 10

4x + 6 = 4x + 10 - 4

4x + 6 = 4x + 6

the expression on the left hand side is identical to the one on the right hand side. therefore, we are looking at just a single straight line whose equation is;

y = 4x + 6

consequently, we shall have infinitely many solutions
