The given question is wrong.
Question:
Which expression is equivalent to the given expression using commutative property of addition? 2(x + b) + 3(xa).
Answer:
Option C:
3(xa) + 2(x + b)
Solution:
Given expression is 2(x + b) + 3(xa).
To find the equivalent expression using commutative property of addition.
Let us first define the commutative property of addition.
a + b = b + a
You can add in any order.
Now, write the given expression using commutative property.
2(x + b) + 3(xa) = 3(xa) + 2(x + b)
Option C is the correct answer.
Hence 3(xa) + 2(x + b) equivalent expression using commutative property of addition.
Answer:
a
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
3(x + 3)² - 81 = 0 ( add 81 to both sides )
3(x + 3)² = 81 ( divide both sides by 3 )
(x + 3)² = 27 ( take the square root of both sides )
x + 3 = ± 
= ± 3
( subtract 3 from both sides )
x = - 3 ± 3
x = - 3 - 3 or x = - 3 + 3 → a
0.67, because when you have a percent like that you just need to move the decimal 2 places to the left.
