Q. Which property of equality is shown below?\newlineIf: p=54(14)p = 54 - (-14)\newlineThen: pq=54(14)qp - q = 54 - (-14) - q\newlineChoices:\newline(A) Addition Property of Equality\newline(B) Subtraction Property of Equality\newline(C) Multiplication Property of Equality\newline(D) Division Property of Equality
  1. Identify Operation: Identify the operation performed on both sides of the original equation.\newlineOriginal equation: p=54(14)p = 54 - (-14)\newlineOperation performed: Subtracting qq from both sides.\newlinepq=54(14)qp - q = 54 - (-14) - q
  2. Corresponding Property: Determine which property of equality corresponds to the operation performed.\newlineSubtracting qq from both sides of the equation is an application of the Subtraction Property of Equality, which states that if you subtract the same number from both sides of an equation, the two sides remain equal.
