so.. the left-hand-side does indeed simplify to x+7, so the equation does check out.
however, notice something, for the equation of x+7, when x = 6, we get (6) + 7 which is 13.
BUT for the rational, we get
so, even though the siimplification is correct, the rational or original expression is constrained in its domain.
The answer is b because I took it and got it w
Answer:
The answer to your question is:
Step-by-step explanation:
(4 + 5) + 2 = 4 + (5 + 2) Associative property of addition
2(2x + 4) = 4x + 8 Distributive property
( 7 x ) 3 = 7 (x 3) Associative property of multiplication
( 8 x 2) = (x 8 2) Commutative property of multiplication
( 7 + 3) + 1 = 1 + (7 + 3) Commutative property of addition
The answer is a i hope i helped
