Exercise 1 Page 37

Use the Division Property of Equality to eliminate the multiplication.

A

We want to find out which value of x makes the given equation true. 4x=32 To do so, we have to isolate x on one side. Using the Division Property of Equality, we will divide both sides of the equation by 4. This will eliminate the multiplication and isolate x.
4x=32
4x/4=32/4
x=8
Therefore the correct answer is A.
