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

A certain hydraulic system operates at 6,000 PSI. Complete the percentage change in the volume of oil in the system as the press

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

the percentage change in the volume of the oil is -3.22%

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the percentage change in the volume of the oil is given below:

= -(6,000 - 0) ÷ (186,000)

= -3.22%

This negative sign represents the decrease in the volume

Hence, the percentage change in the volume of the oil is -3.22%

Four friends shared 1/2 of one carton of orange juice and 1/4 of another carton of apple juice. What fraction of each carton of

Natalka [10]

Answer:

$\dfrac{1}{16}$

$\dfrac{1}{32}$

$\dfrac{3}{32}$

Step-by-step explanation:

So in the first carton of orange juice 4 friends shared the juice.

This can be shown as:

$\dfrac{(\dfrac{1}{2})}{4}$

$\dfrac{(\dfrac{1}{2})}{4}=\dfrac{1}{16}$

The 4 friends got 1/16 of the carton each in the first carton of OJ.

Next for the second carton, it can be shown as:

$\dfrac{(\dfrac{1}{4})}{4}$

$\dfrac{(\dfrac{1}{2})}{4}=\dfrac{1}{32}$

The 4 friends got 1/32 of the carton each in the first carton of OJ.

Now to see how much they got in total each, we simply add 1/16 to 1/32

$Total OJ each = \dfrac{1}{16}+\dfrac{1}{32}$

$Total OJ each = \dfrac{3}{32}$

Each friend got a total of $\dfrac{3}{32}$ each from both cartons of OJ.

5x + 9 = x - 23 find X

Doss [256]

5x + 9 = x - 23

move x to the other side

sign changes from +x to -x

5x-x+9= x-x-23 ( combine like terms)

5x-x+9= -23

4x+9= -23

move -9 to the other side

4x+9-9= -23-9

4x= -23-9

4x= -32

divide both sides by 4 to get x by itself

4x/4= -32/4

answer:

x= -8
