Which properties does not belong with the other three?


8=x/2 or 3=x divided by 3 or x-6=5 or x/3=9

Hi there!

I believe your answer is:  

[tex]x - 6 = 5[/tex]

Here’s why:  

⸻⸻⸻⸻

I am assuming that '3=x divided by 3' is supposed to be [tex]3 = \frac{x}{3}[/tex].

⸻⸻⸻⸻

The first, second, and fourth equations have x divided by a number. To isolate x, we would have to use the multiplication property of equality.

⸻⸻⸻⸻

For the third one ([tex]x-6=5[/tex]), the variable 'x' is being subtracted by 6. We would have to use the addition property of equality to isolate x.
