Hello!
The Associative Property of Multiplication states the following:
a × (b × c) = (a × b) × c
The equation given in the image above follows the same form:
9 × (5 × 2) = (9 × 5) × 2
Therefore, the given equation must be representative of the Associative Property.
I hope this helps!
Answer:
Ge I Joe 02 04 Soccer balls height
Step-by-step explanation:
Things I notice about this problem:
- "Difference" indicates subtraction.
- When a problem simply says "a number," I replace it with a variable.
It is written out like this:
.
-2x +7 = 3x - 8
Move the variable to the left-hand side and change its sign
-2x -3x+ 7 = -8
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
-2x -3x = -8 -7
Collect like terms
-5x = -15
Divide both sides of the equation by -5
x=3
