Associative property is dealing with parentahsees and orders
it is
a(bc)=(ab)c and
a+(b+c)=(a+b)+c
so we want the multiplication one
given
(10)(5x)(7)
we can arragnge these a number of ways (we should use commutative property, but whatever)
first one works, the 7 was moved to front
2nd is wrong, that is a wierd version of the distributive
3rd is right, 5x was moved to the front
4th is wack, no bueno
answer is 1st and 3rd options
834+14s=848>978-10s=968
a real life situation for that could be like how many apples 848apples/968total
I just did some work for this, and I believe the correct answer is b. 7%.
