Answer:
the Associative Property
Step-by-step explanation:
Notice that the ORDER doesn't change -- a, b, c on both sides. But the GROUPING changes.
Example:
3 + (4 + 5) = (3 + 4) + 5
3 + 9 = 7 + 5
12 = 12
Subtraction does NOT behave this way!
8 - (7 - 1) = 8 - 6 = 2
(8 - 7) - 1 = 1 - 1 = 0
It matters who you associate with! :-)
Answer:
step 3
Step-by-step explanation:
he should have subtracted 9 to the outside.
whatever you do to the inside you must do to the opposite to the outside
so your final form must be -7(x-3)^2 + 8
The third option makes the most sense because 2 times what ted would be 2x plus 8 more. 2x+8
