This is called the <u>Multiplication property of equality.</u>
The multiplication property of equality states that whatever you multiply on one side, you must multiply the same quantity on the other side of the equation. In this case, variable c is multiplied to both sides of the equation.
Step-by-step explanation:
3+x-2/x-3<_4
cross multiply
3+x-2<_4(x-3)
3+x-2<_4x-12
1+x<_4x-12
collect like terms
1+12<_4x-x
13<_3x
divide both side by 3
13/3<_×
6.5<_x
First is B, since 1 and 3 are corresponding angles, they must be equal
Next is I, 3 and 5 must be equal since they are vertically opposite
Last is transitive property
Since 1 = 3 and 3 = 5, then 1 must equal 5
