Use the quotation and your knowledge of social studies to answer the following question.
"Non-violent resistance implies the very opposite of weakness. Defiance combined with
non-retaliatory acceptance of repression from one's opponents is active, not passive. It
requires strength, and there is nothing automatic or intuitive about the resoluteness
required for using non-violent methods in political struggle and the quest for Truth."
~ Mohandas Gandhi
The above ideas were part of the philosophy of which of the following?

8 - (2a + 7) = a + 40     distribute/multiply - into (2a + 7)

8 - 2a - 7 = a + 40

1 - 2a = a + 40       add 2a on both sides

1 = 3a + 40         subtract 40 on both sides

-39 = 3a       divide 3 on both sides

-13 = a

[proof]

8 - (2a + 7) = a + 40

8 - (2(-13) + 7) = -13 + 40

8 - (-26 + 7) = 27

8 - (-19) = 27

8 + 19 = 27

27 = 27
