Answer: (-3,-3)
Step-by-step explanation:
(3+-9)/2=-3
(1+-7)/2=-3
The question does not make sense.
The commutative property applies to addition and multiplication, not addition and subtraction.
The commutative property does not apply to subtraction or division because in those operations, the order of the numbers makes a difference, whereas in addition and subtraction the order does not make a difference.
For example:
Addition
5 + 4 = 9
4 + 5 = 9
5 + 4 = 4 + 5
Changing the order of the 4 and the 5 gives the same answer.
The commutative property does apply to addition.
Multiplication
5 * 4 = 20
4 * 5 = 20
5 * 4 = 4 * 5
Changing the order of the 4 and the 5 gives the same answer.
The commutative property does apply to multiplication.
Subtraction
5 - 4 = 1
4 - 5 = -1
5 - 4 is not equal to 4 - 5
Changing the order of the 4 and the 5 gives a different answer.
The commutative property does not apply to subtraction.
Division
5/4 = 1.25
4/5 = 0.8
1.25 is not equal to 0.8.
Changing the order of the 4 and the 5 gives a different answer.
The commutative property does not apply to division.
Answer: the percent of study group students from outside the state is 13%
Step-by-step explanation:
The total number of students in the young woman's study group that are from the town where the young woman's school is located is 7%
The total number of students in the young woman's study group that are from in-state (but not from the school's town) is 80%.
Since the rest are from outside the state, the percent of study group students from outside the state would be
100 - (80 + 7) = 100 - 87 = 13%
Option B since -7/15 equals -0.4666...
Hope it helps!
