Q. Select all of the equations below that are equivalent to:\newline62=v+w62 = v + w\newlineUse properties of equality.\newlineMulti-select Choices:\newline(A) 31=v+w2-31 = \frac{v + w}{-2}\newline(B) 2=v+w312 = \frac{v + w}{31}\newline(C) 2=v+w31-2 = \frac{v + w}{-31}\newline(D) 31=v+w231 = \frac{v + w}{2}
  1. Identify Equation: Identify the original equation and understand the task.\newlineThe original equation is 62=v+w62 = v + w. We need to find which of the given choices are equivalent to this equation by using properties of equality.
  2. Analyze Choice (A): Analyze choice (A) 31=v+w2–31 = v + \frac{w}{–2}. To check if this equation is equivalent to the original, we can multiply both sides of the equation by 2–2 to see if we get the original equation. 31×(2)=(v+w2)×(2)–31 \times (–2) = (v + \frac{w}{–2}) \times (–2) 62=v+w62 = v + w This shows that choice (A) is equivalent to the original equation.
  3. Analyze Choice (B): Analyze choice (B) 2=v+w312 = v + \frac{w}{31}. To check if this equation is equivalent to the original, we can multiply both sides of the equation by 3131 to see if we get the original equation. 2×31=(v+w31)×312 \times 31 = (v + \frac{w}{31}) \times 31 62=v+w62 = v + w This shows that choice (B) is equivalent to the original equation.
  4. Analyze Choice (C): Analyze choice (C) 2=v+w31-2 = v + \frac{w}{-31}. To check if this equation is equivalent to the original, we can multiply both sides of the equation by 31-31 to see if we get the original equation. 2×(31)=(v+w31)×(31)-2 \times (-31) = \left(v + \frac{w}{-31}\right) \times (-31) 62=v+w62 = v + w This shows that choice (C) is equivalent to the original equation.
  5. Analyze Choice (D): Analyze choice (D) 31=v+w231 = v + \frac{w}{2}. To check if this equation is equivalent to the original, we can multiply both sides of the equation by 22 to see if we get the original equation. 31×2=(v+w2)×231 \times 2 = (v + \frac{w}{2}) \times 2 62=v+w62 = v + w This shows that choice (D) is equivalent to the original equation.
