Michaela wrote the following. If p + 9 = 25 and p = q, then q + 9 = 25. Which property did Michaela show?

A) symmetric property of equality

B) multiplication property of equality

C) substitution property of equality

D) reflexive property of equality

Respuesta :

Answer:

The correct option is C.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is

[tex]p+9=25[/tex]                  .... (1)

and

[tex]p=q[/tex]                        ...(2)

According to the  substitution property of equality, if we have two equation then we can substitute the values form one equation to another equation.

Equation 2 represent that the value p and q are equal.

Using substitution property of equality the first equation can be written as

[tex]q+9=25[/tex]                [tex][\because p=q][/tex]

Therefore Michaela use substitution property of equality and option C is correct.
