Proof: Add Number to Both Sides 5
Let's prove the following theorem:
if 9 + x = 14, then x = 5
Proof:
Given
| 1 | 9 + x = 14 |
|---|
| # | Claim | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | (-9) + (9 + x) = (-9) + 14 | if 9 + x = 14, then (-9) + (9 + x) = (-9) + 14 |
| 2 | (-9) + (9 + x) = x | (-9) + (9 + x) = x |
| 3 | (-9) + 14 = 5 | (-9) + 14 = 5 |
| 4 | x = 5 | if (-9) + 14 = 5 and (-9) + (9 + x) = x and (-9) + (9 + x) = (-9) + 14, then x = 5 |
