Algebraic Properties

Question 1

Substitution Property of Equality

Answer 1

For real numbers a and b if a=b, then a can replace b in any expression or equation, and b can replace a

Question 2

Addition Property of Equality

Answer 2

For real number’s a, b and c. if a+b. then a+c+b+c

(if it starts of equal on both sides, it will still be equal if you add c to both sides)

Question 3

Transitive Property of Equality

Answer 3

For real numbers a, b and c if a = b then a = c

Question 4

Reflexive property of Equality

Answer 4

Shows that something is equal to itself a=a
