The commutative property of multiplication states that the numbers can be multiplied in any order.

a+b = b+a : Commutative property of addition

a*b = b*a : Commutative property of multiplication

a+0=a : Additive identity property  

a*1 =a : Multiplicative identity property  

Answer : a*b =b*a

Answer:

a · b = b · a

Step-by-step explanation:

Commutative property of multiplication states that the order of multiplication in real numbers does not matter,

I.e.

m × n = n × m

∀ m, n ∈ R

Thus, the correct option that represents the commutative property of multiplication is,

a · b = b · a

Note :

a + b = b + a represents commutative property of addition,

a + 0 = a represents the additive identity property,

a . 1 = a represents the multiplicative identity property.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

5x + 3 - 2x = 12 + 7x - 2

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Combine like terms:                                                                                        3x + 3 = 7x + 10
  2. [SPE] Subtract 3x on both sides:                                                                    3 = 4x + 10
  3. [SPE] Subtract 10 on both sides:                                                                      -7 = 4x
  4. [DPE] Divide 4 on both sides:                                                                         -7/4 = x
  5. Rewrite:                                                                                                           x = -7/4

<u>Step 3: Check</u>

<em>Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>

  1. Substitute in <em>x</em>:                     5(-7/4) + 3 - 2(-7/4) = 12 + 7(-7/4) - 2
  2. Multiply:                                -35/4 + 3 + 7/2 = 12 - 49/4 - 2
  3. Add:                                      -23/4 + 7/2 = 12 - 49/4 - 2
  4. Add:                                      -9/4 = 12 - 49/4 - 2
  5. Subtract:                               -9/4 = -1/4 - 2
  6. Subtract:                               -9/4 = -9/4

Here we see that -9/4 does indeed equal -9/4.

∴ x = -7/4 is the solution to the equation.
