<u>Answer</u>:
Jared is right.
<u>Explanation</u>:
proof 1:
10 - 4 = 6
6 = 6
second proof:
10-3 - 4 = 6 - 3
10 - 7 = 3
3 = 3
third proof:
10 - 4 - 3 = 6 - 3
10 - 7 = 3
3 = 3
Hence for all LHS = RHS proved and Jared is correct.

<h3>Answer: Commutative Property (choice C)</h3>
===================================================
Explanation:
Here are all of the justifications for each step
- Step 1. None needed. This is the original expression
- Step 2. Distributive property
- Step 3. Multiply (the 3 and 5 multiply to 15)
- Step 4. Commutative property. Specifically, this is the commutative property of addition which allows us to add any two numbers in any order we want. In this case, the -15 and 4x terms swap places.
- Step 5. Associative property. The parenthesis group the first two terms away from the third term.
- Step 6. Combine like terms. Both 3x and 4x have an x only so they are like terms that combine to 7x. You can think of it as 3+4 = 7, then you just tack an x onto everything to get 3x+4x = 7x.
The correct answer is 3.53
