Answer:

x = 4/3 or 1.33333333333333333333333(infinite 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

3 times a number = 3x

sum = addition

3x + 5 = 9

now balance equation, get numbers without x on same side. Subtract 5 from both sides, this will leave 3x on one side, and 9-5 on the other side.

3x = 4, now divide by 3 on each side to get x on one side

3x/3 = 4/3

x=4/3

4/3 = 1.33

3 x 1.33 +5 = 9

insens350 [35]

Answer:

The correct answer is OB.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us recall the Associative Property of Addition: given three real numbers $a$ , $b$ and $c$ the following equality holds:

$(a+b) + c = a+(b+c)$ .

Let us remark that the Associative Property of Addition tells us that we can perform the sums in any order. So,

$(n+2)+7 = n+(2+7)$ .

In the other options there was used the Commutative Property of Addition.
