I'm on the topic of "Algebra proofs".

Question

Is this statement an example of a transitive property?: If CD=AB and AB=8 then CD=8

Here's another problem I want you to check& note that I only have 4 blanks per side of the table (statements and reasons)

Given: 2(x+3)=3x+1
Prove: 5=x

Statement               Reasons
2(x+3)=3x+1            Given
2x+6=3x+1               Distributive
5=1x                           Subtraction&subtraction
5=x                               Division
