Y2-y1/x2-x1=slope
y-9/2-17=-1/3
y-7/-15=-1/3
y-7=-1/3 *(-15)
y-7=5
y=5+7
y=12

Is there a commutative property of subtraction that states a-b=b-a? investigate and make a conclusion that you justify.

Rom4ik [11]

No is your answer

Assuming that b ≠ a, the answers will not be the same.

For example, (remembering that b ≠ a) let us assume that b = 10, a = 5

10 - 5 = 5

5 - 10 = -5

5 ≠ -5

So the commutative property of subtraction does not work unless in certain cases, in which a = b.

hope this helps
