Here are the steps followed to solve the equation \(5 - 3(x + 3) = 11 - 8x\) with the corresponding properties:

  1. Distributive Property: \(5 - 3(x + 3) = 5 - 3x - 9\)
  2. Combine Like Terms: \(5 - 3x - 9 = -3x - 4\)
  3. Addition Property of Equality: \(-3x - 4 = 11 - 8x\) (adding \(8x\) to both sides)
  4. Combine Like Terms: \(5x - 4 = 11\)
  5. Addition Property of Equality: \(5x = 15\) (adding \(4\) to both sides)
  6. Division Property of Equality: \(x = 3\) (dividing both sides by \(5\))

So the responses for each step are:

  1. Distributive Property
  2. Combine Like Terms
  3. Addition Property of Equality
  4. Combine Like Terms
  5. Addition Property of Equality
  6. Division Property of Equality
