The correct option is B. Distributive property

Given,

[tex]\frac{2}{3} x+7=-5\\[/tex]

On solving the above equation,

multiplying both sides by 3 we, get

[tex]2x+21=-15[/tex]

now subtracting 21 from both the sides,

[tex]2x=-36\\[/tex]

dividing both the sides by 2 we get,

[tex]x=-18[/tex]

Since in the above steps we follow all the giving property except the distributive property.

Hence the correct option is B. Distributive property.
