Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello,

Thanks
Given:
Two expressions are
and
.
To find:
The property that allows to compute
as
.
Solution:
According to associative property of addition, if a, b and c are real numbers, then

Using the associative property of addition, we get
![\left[\left(-\dfrac{1}{5}\right)+\left(-\dfrac{3}{5}\right)\right]+\left(\dfrac{1}{7}\right)=\left(-\dfrac{1}{5}\right)+\left[\left(-\dfrac{3}{5}\right)+\left(\dfrac{1}{7}\right)\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cleft%28-%5Cdfrac%7B1%7D%7B5%7D%5Cright%29%2B%5Cleft%28-%5Cdfrac%7B3%7D%7B5%7D%5Cright%29%5Cright%5D%2B%5Cleft%28%5Cdfrac%7B1%7D%7B7%7D%5Cright%29%3D%5Cleft%28-%5Cdfrac%7B1%7D%7B5%7D%5Cright%29%2B%5Cleft%5B%5Cleft%28-%5Cdfrac%7B3%7D%7B5%7D%5Cright%29%2B%5Cleft%28%5Cdfrac%7B1%7D%7B7%7D%5Cright%29%5Cright%5D)
Therefore, the required property is associative property of addition.
198+ 132= 330
1274+ 3599= 4873
7.8/2.4 = x/2
2.4x = 15.6
x = 6.5
perimeter of triangle = 6.5 + 4.2 + 7.8 = 18.5
answer B. 18.5 ft
