WRITING IN MATH Compare and contrast the Substitution Property of Equality and the Transitive Property of Equality. SOLUTION: Sample answer: The Transitive Property utilizes the Substitution Property. While the Substitution Property is done with two values, that is, one being substituted for another, the Transitive Property deals with three values, determining that since two values are equal to a third value, then they must be equal. 68.
