To write an equivalent expression for the following all that you would need to do is to add the values of 4 and 3 together
As these numbers come before the expression, and then distribute the final answer into the brackets.
Here it would be 35 + 7x.
This is the final answer.
Both of these are equal to each other one being simplified and the other being complex.
2 is the greatest common factor.
The answer is the Associative Property of addition.
Associative property of real numbers is related to how we use the parenthesis in the expression while adding or multiplying, we always get the same answer.
like a + b + c = (a + b) + c = a + (b + c)
The given equation is 4.5 + 9.8 +1.5 + 3.2 = (4.5 + 9.8) + (1.5 + 3.2) = (4.5 + 1.5) + (9.8 + 3.2)
