ANSWER

The substitution property of equality.

EXPLANATION

We know that:

[tex]12x = 60[/tex]

and that

[tex]x = 5[/tex]

Since x=5 or 5=x , we can substitute x for 5 wherever we see x in the given equation.

When we do that, we obtain;

[tex]12 \bullet \: 5 = 60[/tex]

This is what we refer to as the substitution property of equality.
