Question: What is the commutative, associative, and distributive property of 3a plus 5a plus 2b0.

Answer:Defintion of Commutative property holds for both addition and multiplication. That is: the operations addition and multiplication are commutative over the set of real numbers. That means, for any two real numbers x and. y, x + y = y + x and xy = yx. Definiton of associative In mathematics, the associative property is a property of some binary operations. In propositional logic, associativity is a valid rule of replacement for expressions in logical proofs and distrive property means The Distributive Property is an algebra property which is used to multiply a single term and two or more terms inside a set of parentheses. I really hope this helped thx for the question!

Commutative: a+b=b+a
associative: (a+b)+c=a+(b+c)
distributive: ab+ac=a(b+c)

so
3a+5a+2b
we can show distributive with the a terms
3a+5a=a(3+5)=8a
8a+2b
we can distribute again
2(4a)+2b=2(4a+b)

not sure how to show commutative or associative
I guess
3a+5a+2b=2b+3a+5a

Hello could you help me please?

Ilya [14]

Answer:

C. 6

Step-by-step explanation:

So it says read less thann 25 books --> that means the numbers are 13,14,14,16,19,21,21,22,23, and 24 --> a total of 10 numbers

Then it says read more than 35 books --> that means the numbers are 37,41,42,43 --> a total of 4 numbers

Now, it says how many more --> that means you subtract 4 by 10 = 10 - 4 = 6

Therefore the answer is 6 more students read less than 25 books than read more than 35 books.

Please help <br> The diagram shows a 5ft student standing near a tree

Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

25 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram shows two triangles that are similar. Similar triangles have equal angles and sides that are proportional to each other. Since the base of each triangle is given, we can find the proportion of the sides:

$\frac{smaller}{larger}=\frac{8}{40}=\frac{1}{5}$

Given the ratio of the smaller to larger triangle, we can set up a proportion to find the missing height of the larger triangle:

$\frac{1}{5}=\frac{5}{x}$ , where 'x' represent the height of the tree

cross-multiply: x = (5)(5) or 25 ft

A new mixture of self-tanning & moisturizing lotions for everyday use is being developed. This mixture is made by mixing 70

777dan777 [17]

Answer:

450 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the cost of the mixture $C_m$ must be the cost of the everyday moisturizing lotion $C_e$ plus the cost of the self-tanning lotion $C_s$ , which means $C_m=C_e+C_s$ .

The cost of any substance will be the cost per ounce of the substance (c), multiplied by the number of ounces (n), which means C=nc, so we have from the previous formula that we have:

$n_m c_m=n_e c_e + n_s c_s$

But we also know that the number of ounces of the mixture must be the sum of the number of ounces of the everyday moisturizing lotion with the number of ounces of the self-tanning lotion, so we have

$n_e c_e + n_s c_s=n_m c_m=(n_e+n_s) c_m=n_e c_m+n_s c_m$
