Answer:

Subtraction Property of Equality

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]-x + 1 = -4[/tex]

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

Required

State which property is used

The word that describes the operation is; subtraction property of equality.

This property states that:

if [tex]x = y[/tex] then

[tex]x - a = y - a[/tex]

So, for the given  equation:

[tex]-x + 1 = -4[/tex]

When the subtraction property of equality is applied

[tex]-x + 1 - 1 = -4 - 1[/tex]

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

So:

(a) Subtraction Property of Equality is correct
