8. If x( 4x + y) = 10, then 4x2 + xy = 10
What property can justify this equation?
A. reflexive property C. distributive property B. transitive property D. substitution property​


Sagot :

B. Transitive Property

The Transitive Property states that for all real numbers x ,y, and z, if x=y and y=z , then x=z . If x=y.

In your case, since x( 4x + y) = 10, and 10 = 4x2 + xy, then x( 4x + y) = 4x2 + xy according to the transitive property.

x( 4x + y) = 10 = 4x2 + xy
