The question does not make sense.
The commutative property applies to addition and multiplication, not addition and subtraction.
The commutative property does not apply to subtraction or division because in those operations, the order of the numbers makes a difference, whereas in addition and subtraction the order does not make a difference.
For example:
Addition
5 + 4 = 9
4 + 5 = 9
5 + 4 = 4 + 5
Changing the order of the 4 and the 5 gives the same answer.
The commutative property does apply to addition.
Multiplication
5 * 4 = 20
4 * 5 = 20
5 * 4 = 4 * 5
Changing the order of the 4 and the 5 gives the same answer.
The commutative property does apply to multiplication.
Subtraction
5 - 4 = 1
4 - 5 = -1
5 - 4 is not equal to 4 - 5
Changing the order of the 4 and the 5 gives a different answer.
The commutative property does not apply to subtraction.
Division
5/4 = 1.25
4/5 = 0.8
1.25 is not equal to 0.8.
Changing the order of the 4 and the 5 gives a different answer.
The commutative property does not apply to division.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Consecutive Terms: k-5, k+7, k+55
Required:
Determine the value of k
To do this, we make use of the concept of common ratio.
The common ratio (r) of a geometric sequence is:
In other words:
Where 1, 2 and 3 represents the terms of the progression/sequence
So:
becomes
Cross Multiply:
Open Brackets
Collect Like Terms
Solve for k
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
The absolute value always returns a positive value, that is
| - a | = | a | = a, thus
| 3 
| = 3 → C
Let the smaller one is x so the larger is x+1
x(x+1)=1332
x^2+x=1332
x^2 +x -1332 =0
(x - 36)(x + 37) =0
so x = 36 or x = -37
therefor the larger integer is either 37 or -36
