Answer 2

Hello!

Explanation: Addition property of equality- adding the same number to both sides of an equation it does not change the equation. First you switch sides of an equation. It just gave us x-26=59. Then you add by 26 from both sides of an equation form. It just gave us, x-26+26=59+26. Then substitute the value for the variable. It just gave us the answer is 59+26=85, x=85, or 85=x, and addition property of equality is the right answer.

Hope this helps!
