Q. Select all of the equations below that are equivalent to:\newliners=22rs = 22\newlineUse properties of equality.\newlineMulti-select Choices:\newline(A) rs11=2\frac{rs}{11} = 2\newline(B) rs11=4\frac{rs}{11} = 4\newline(C) rs11=3\frac{rs}{-11} = -3\newline(D) rs2=11\frac{rs}{2} = 11
  1. Analyze Equation and Properties: Analyze the given equation rs=22rs = 22 and the properties of equality to determine which of the multi-select choices are equivalent.\newlineWe will use the property of equality that allows us to divide both sides of an equation by the same nonzero number to maintain equality.
  2. Check Choice (A): Check choice (A) rs11=2\frac{rs}{11} = 2.\newlineDivide both sides of the original equation rs=22rs = 22 by 1111.\newliners11=2211\frac{rs}{11} = \frac{22}{11}\newliners11=2\frac{rs}{11} = 2\newlineThis matches choice (A), so (A) is equivalent.
  3. Check Choice (B): Check choice (B) rs=114\frac{r}{s}=\frac{11}{4}.\newlineDivide both sides of the original equation rs=22rs = 22 by 1111.\newliners11=2211\frac{rs}{11} = \frac{22}{11}\newliners11=2\frac{rs}{11} = 2\newlineThis does not match choice (B), so (B) is not equivalent.
  4. Check Choice (C): Check choice (C) rs11=3\frac{rs}{-11} = -3.\newlineDivide both sides of the original equation rs=22rs = 22 by 11-11.\newliners(11)=22(11)\frac{rs}{(-11)} = \frac{22}{(-11)}\newliners(11)=2\frac{rs}{(-11)} = -2\newlineThis does not match choice (C), so (C) is not equivalent.
  5. Check Choice (D): Check choice (D) rs2=11\frac{rs}{2} = 11.\newlineDivide both sides of the original equation rs=22rs = 22 by 22.\newliners2=222\frac{rs}{2} = \frac{22}{2}\newliners2=11\frac{rs}{2} = 11\newlineThis matches choice (D), so (D) is equivalent.
