Q. Select all of the equations below that are equivalent to:8−c=13Use properties of equality.Multi-select Choices:(A) 8−c+5=18(B) 8−c+2=15(C) 16−c=9+13(D) 8−c+3=15
Analyze Equation: Step 1: Analyze the original equation and the choices given.Original equation: 8−c=13.We need to find which choices are equivalent to this by using properties of equality
Check Choice (A): Step 2: Check choice (A) 8−c+5=18. Add 5 to both sides of the original equation: (8−c)+5=13+5. Calculate: 18=18. This choice is equivalent
Check Choice (B): Step 3: Check choice (B)8−c+2=15. Add 2 to both sides of the original equation: (8−c)+2=13+2. Calculate: 15=15. This choice is equivalent
Check Choice (C): Step 4: Check choice (C) 16−c=9+13.This simplifies to 16−c=22.Compare with original: 8−c=13.These are not equivalent; different constants and results
Check Choice (D): Step 5: Check choice D8−c+3=15. Add 3 to both sides of the original equation: (8−c)+3=13+3. Calculate: 16=16. Oops, made a mistake in calculation; it should be 15=16, which is incorrect
