Ms. O'Malley wrote this equation on the board and asked, "Is this a true equation?" x – y = y – x

Lindsey said, "Sometimes it is, and sometimes it isn't."

For each case shown, determine whether this equation is true or false. Check the box if the case is always true.

Question 5 options:

x = 0, y = 0

x ≠ 0, y = 0

x ≠ 0, y ≠ 0

x = 0, y ≠ 0
