Properties

[Augustine]

Hello, I've been working on my summer math packet and I got stuck on this question.

What property is illustrated by this statement? If t-32=52, then 52=t-13. I was thinking it was the commutative property of addition since the order changed, but it didn't seem right.

Additionally, I was stuck on this question. What property is illustrated by this statement? If h+12=22, then h=10.

Hello, I've been working on my summer math packet and I got stuck on this question.

What property is illustrated by this statement? If t-32=52, then 52=t-13.

I would call that wrong property, because:

t-32=52 gives t = 84

and

52 = t - 13 gives t = 65

it was the commutative property of addition since the order changed, but it didn't seem right.

Additionally, I was stuck on this question. What property is illustrated by this statement? If h+12=22, then h=10.

.

If the question had said:

What property is illustrated by this statement? If t-32=52, then 52=t-32.

Then the property shown would be:

Symmetric property of "=". (i.e. If A = B then B = A)

If your question is t-32=52

Then 52=t-32

Then the properties is, Symmetric Property

The Symmetric Property states that for all real numbers x and y,
if x = y, then y = x​

John is correct - I fixed my post accordingly.
