<span>Changing the grouping of the addends should not change the sum, according to the associative property of addition. You might group them differently with (50 + 3) + 47, so that you have 50 + (3 + 47). You might not regroup them with (16 + 4) + 5 rather than 16 + (4 + 5).</span>
Answer: 6 - 5
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
|z - 6| - |z - 5| ; z < 5
Since z < 5, then
|z - 6| will be the absolute value of a negative number. Replace the absolute value with a negative and parentheses:
-(z - 6) = -z + 6
|z - 5| will be the absolute value of a negative number. Replace the absolute value with a negative and parentheses:
-(z - 5) = -z + 5
Now subtract them without the absolute value signs:
-z + 6 - (-z + 5)
Distribute the negative sign:
-z + 6 + z - 5
-z + z = 0 which leaves:
6 - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Maybe it should be written as 4 9/10
In a mixed number
-3/4 because it goes down three and over 4 by the time it hits the next readable point on the graph
