Give a geometric example of the Commutative Property

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2+5+=5+2 is that a geometric example or an algebraic?

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

I would say that this is an algebraic expression.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how do you make it a geometric example?

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

Well there are no such thing as an equation or expression when finding the geometric example. However, there is a sequence.

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

To find the recall for the geometric expression, you can use this formula: A(n)=a*r^n-1

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

The n that is next to the A is for the n term.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is that a example of the commutative property?

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

Not exactly. This is for the expression towards a geometric sequence.

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

What you just need to know is that the Commutative Property is practically the opposite of the equation. Such example can be: x+y=y+x
