Four Basic Properties Used To Solve Equations: 1. Addition Property of EQUALITY: If The

The document outlines four basic properties - addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division - that can be used to solve equations by applying the same operation to both sides of an equation while maintaining equivalency to the original equation. Applying one of the four properties allows the equation to be manipulated without changing the solution(s).

FOUR BASIC PROPERTIES

USED TO SOLVE
EQUATIONS
1. ADDITION
PROPERTY OF
EQUALITY: if the
same quantity is
added to both sides
of an equation, the
resulting equation is
equivalent to the
original equation.
2. SUBTRACTION
PROPERTY OF
EQUALITY: if the
same quantity is
subtracted from
both sides of an
equation, the
resulting equation is
equivalent to the
original equation.
3. MULTIPLICATION
PROPERTY OF
EQUALITY: if both
sides of an equation
are multiplied by the
same (nonzero)
quantity, the
resulting equation is
equivalent to the
original equation.
4. DIVISION PROPERTY
OF EQUALITY: if
both sides of an
equation are divided
by the same
(nonzero) quantity,
the resulting
equation is
equivalent to the
original equation.
