Prove the Addition Property of Equality using a = 8 and b = 8
Equality means equal
Addition Property of Equality Definition:
For three numbers a, b, and c:
If a = b, then a + c = b + c
Plug in a = 8 and c = 9, we set b = 8:
a + c = 8 + 9
b + c = 8 + 9
Evaluating, we get:
a + c = 17
b + c = 17
Final Answer
Since 17 = 17,
we have proven the Addition Property of Equality
using a and b = 8 and c = 9.
we have proven the Addition Property of Equality
using a and b = 8 and c = 9.
