The multiplication property of equality could be used to solve which of the following equations?

A. (x+2) (x-3) = 0

B. m + 7 = - 12

C. b : (-2) = 18

D. - 3 + y = 7

option C

Step-by-step explanation:

The multiplication property of equality states that same number is multiplied on both sides of the equation

A. (x+2) (x-3) = 0

To solve for x we set each factor = 0

B. m + 7 = - 12

To solve for m we subtract 7 from both sides, Its subtraction property

C. b : (-2) = 18

To remove - 2 we multiply both sides by - 2 because - 2 is in the denominator. we use multiplication property of equality

D. - 3 + y = 7

To solve for y we add 3 on both sides, its addition property

Step-by-step explanation:

C.

The multiplicative property states that by multiplying both sides of an equation gives you the same sum on both sides. By multiplying both sides by - 2, the equations are the same by the property.
