Carmen used the associative property of addition to solve the given problem.

The associative property means one can add or multiply the given numbers regardless of how they are grouped. In other words, if one is adding or multiplying it does not matter where the brackets are placed.

The given problem is -

17 + (45 + 23),  17 + (23 + 45),   (17 + 23) + 45

So here the sum of all the three patterns is 85. This clearly proves that forming groups does not affect the sum. So this is based on associative property of addition.

Suppose the foot of a 12-foot ladder was placed 4 feet from a building how high up on the building would the top of the ladder r
NikAS [45]

Use the pythagorean theorem.

The foot of the ladder is 4 feet away from the building (leg 1)

The height of the building is leg 2

The ladder, which would be at an angle, is 12 feet. So our hypotenuse would be 12. The equation for this would be a²+4²=12²

We can then begin to solve

a² + 16 = 144  

a² = 128

a=11.31

So, our answer is: The top of the ladder reaches the building at 11.31 feet up

If f(x) = |x| + 9 and g(x) = –6, which describes the value of (f + g)(x)?
Kryger [21]
(f+g) (x)= f(x) + g(f)

= IxI + 9 + (-6) 

= IxI + 9 - 6

= IxI + 3

(f + g)(x) = IxI + 3
