Give the property that justifies each step.

Please check the explanation below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Some of the properties are defined as:

a(b+c) = ab+ac

For example,

suppose a=1, b=2, c=3

1(2+3) = 1(2) + 1(3)

5 = 2+3 = 5

if (a=b), then a-c = b-c

For example,

suppose a=1, b=1, c=3

if a = b ⇒ 1 = 1

then a-c = b-c ⇒ 1-3 = 1 - 3  ⇒ -2 = -2

if (a=b), then a+c = b+c

For example,

suppose a=1, b=1, c=3

if a = b ⇒ 1 = 1

then a+c = b+c ⇒ 1+3 = 1+3  ⇒ 4 = 4

if (a=b), then a×c = b×c

For example,

suppose a=1, b=1, c=3

if a = b ⇒ 1 = 1

then a×c = b×c ⇒ 1×3 = 1 × 3  ⇒ 3 = 3

if (a=b), then a÷c = b÷c

For example,

suppose a=1, b=1, c=3

if a = b ⇒ 1 = 1

then a÷c = b÷c ⇒ 1÷3 = 1 ÷ 3  ⇒ 1/3 = 1/3

Let's solve the given equation using the above properties.

5(x+10) = 20        Given

5x+50 = 20          1) Distriburive property ∵ a(b+c) = ab+ac

5x = -30               2) Subtraction property of Equality ∵ if (a=b), then a-c = b-c

x = -6                    3) Division property of Equality  ∵ if (a=b), then a÷c = b÷c

the answer is 28

step-by-step explanation:

complete the steps to find the area of the trapezoid.

area of rectangle = 256   square units

area of triangle 1 = 24  square units

area of triangle 2 = 16  square units

area of triangle 3 =   96 square units

area of trapezoid = 120  square units
