You can take B out because there is no multiplication.

Answer 4

ok.. yea i guessed that..

Answer 5

Associative Property of Addition:

\(a + (b + c) = (a + b) + c\)

Commutative Property of Addition:

\(a + b = b + a\)

Identity Property of Addition:

\(a + 0 = a\)

So which one do you think it is? @brainbuzzed5646

Answer 6

Associative?

Answer 7

i hope im right

Answer 8

No, I don't think so.

Answer 9

it was communitive

Answer 10

Yep!

Answer 11

Commutative just switches it around, that's what it shows in the parenthesis:

\(7 + (\color{red}{4 + 10}) + 0 = 7 + (\color{red}{10 + 4}) + 0\)
