12/3=4
so m=4
6x4=24
6x1=6
24-6=18
The area of the mat = total area added minus the original area of the water color painting.
length of the mat is:L = 20 in + 1 in + 1 in because 1 in is added to each sideL = 22 inwidth of the mat is:w = 9 in + 1 in + 1inw = 11 in
Area mat = (22 in x 11 in) - ( 20 in x 9 in)
area mat = 62 sq in is the area of the mat
Answer:
B. Step 2 uses the associative property, and step 3 uses the commutative property.
Step-by-step explanation:
The associative property lets you group terms for addition any way you like. It appears that in Step 2, the grouping is ...
4 + (1/6 + 3) + 5/6
The commutative property lets you change the order of any pair of terms involved in addition. It appears that in Step 3, the order of the terms within the group has been swapped.
4 + (3 + 1/6) + 5/6

<em>Comment on associative and commutative properties</em>
What applies to terms in addition applies to factors in multiplication.
Constant: A value that doesn't change. Instead, it's a fixed value.
Variable: A symbol (usually a letter) standing in for an unknown numerical value in an equation.
Term: Either a single number or variable, or numbers and variables multiplied together. (Terms are separated by + or − signs, or sometimes by divide.)
Like Terms: Terms whose variables (and their exponents such as the 2 in x2) are the same. In other words, terms that are "like" each other.
Coefficient: A number used to multiply a variable.
