(-14) + 81 = 81 + (-14) associative property of addition distributive property multiplicative inverse additive identity commutative property of addition Honestly don't know any of these.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

associative property im sure

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

Of course it's associative property.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its not associative.It is commutative property of addition. here the position changing not the parenthesis. a+b=b+a is a commutative property

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

Yes @tutor you are right. In the associative property the parentheses change within two given numbers. But in this case since the integer is negative, it is put into a parenthesis for any confusion of subtraction @tutor Thank you for catching the mistake.
