Answer:

Simply put, the <u>commutative property of multiplication means that no matter how you order the numbers you are multiplying, you will get the same answer</u>. Addition also <em>shares the commutative property with multiplication, whereas division and subtraction do not</em>.

Explanation:

In mathematics, a binary operation is commutative if changing the order of the operands does not change the result. It is a fundamental property of many binary operations, and many mathematical proofs depend on it. Most familiar as the name of the property that says "3 + 4 = 4 + 3" or "2 × 5 = 5 × 2", the property can also be used in more advanced settings.

Ryan is rowing a small boat out to and back from an island 20 miles away at a rate of

Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

The speed with which Ryan was rowing was 4 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

With a small boat, Ryan wants to row towards an island and come back at a speed of x mph and the island is 20 miles away from him.

Therefore, total 20 + 20 = 40 miles he rowed for 5 hours.

On the way to the island, there was a wind of 4 mph in the direction of his motion and on the way back also there was a wind of 4 mph in the direction of his motion.

So, in the total journey, he has a speed of (x + 4) mph.

Therefore, $\frac{40}{5} = x + 4$

⇒ x + 4 = 8

⇒ x = 4 mph.

Therefore, the speed with which Ryan was rowing was 4 mph. (Answer)
