    D.

    the addition property of equality

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given the expression in

    Step 2: 9d - 5 = - 15

    The addition property of equality was used to get step 3.

    That is

    9d - 5 = - 15

    Move - 5 over the equality sign and it becomes + 5

    9d = - 15 + 5

    9d = - 10

    OR add 5 to both sides of the equation as shown below

    9d - 5 + 5 = - 15 + 5

    9d = - 10 which we have in step 3

    Pretty sure it's C. The division property of equality.

    Because on the last step, you divide 9d by 9, to get d. And you also have to divide the other side by 9.
