Question

Indicate which property is illustrated in Step 3.

Step 1 11 + 9x - 11 - 6x + 2 = 11 + (9x - 11) - 6x + 2
Step 2 = 11 + (-11 + 9x) - 6x + 2
Step 3 = [11 + (-11)] + (9x - 6x) + 2
Step 4 = 0 + (9x - 6x) + 2
Step 5 = (9x - 6x) + 2
Step 6 = (9 - 6)x + 2
Step 7 = 3x + 2

Answer 2

additive inverse right

Answer 3

the grouping of it changed via the use of parenthesis
so associative for going from step 2 to step 3
um... additive inverse would be going from step 3 to step 4

Answer 4

oh ok so associative because of the grouping

Answer 5

yes :)
