Question

8+x+y= 8+y+x is an illustration of what property

Answer 1

Commutative, Substitution, Associative, or Distributive

Answer 2

The only thing that has moved around is the numbers. This is because addition is commutative. The "community" of numbers can switch around to any house or place they want.

Answer 3

So 9+x=x+9 would be commutative?

Answer 4

Actually wait hold on. The first one might be associatve

Answer 5

This is because it has three or more terms. With just two terms that are switched like a mirror it is just commuative.
SO the first one is associative, the second one is commutative
