Match the reasons with the statements.

To Prove: x = 1

Given: 2 (x + 3) = 8

Step 1: 2(x + 3) = 8          

Distributive postulate ( distribute 2 over x+3)

Step 2: 2x+6=8

Subtraction property of equality ( subtract 6 both sides )

Step 3: 2x = 8-6 = 2

Division property of equality ( divide both sides by 2)

Step 4: x=1

Now we make table which shows matching of two column

2(x + 3) = 8    Given

2x+6=8            Distributive Postulate

 2x = 2              Subtraction property of equality

   x=1                Division property of equality
