Question

I GIVE MEDAL TO PEOPLE WHO HELPED ME
Identify the property shown.
(7 • p) • 2k = 7 • (p • 2k)

A.
distributive

B.
associative

C.
commutative

D.
transitive

Answer 1

distributive is when a ( b + c ) = a*b + a*c

associative is when a + ( b + c ) = ( a + b ) + c
[moving the parenthesis around]

commutative is when a + b + c = a + c + b
[switching the numbers into a different place]

transitive is when if a = b and b = c , then a = c

Answer 2

:D thx

Answer 3

wait im still confused

Answer 4

what do you think your example is doing?

(7 • p) • 2k = 7 • (p • 2k)

hint:
(a + b) + c = a + (b + c)

Answer 5

which option does it look like? :)

Answer 6

is it A?

Answer 7

not quite :)

that would have looked like
(7 • p) • 2k = 14k * 2pk
^^^ which is not what happened ;P

Answer 8

B ?

Answer 9

that's right! ^_^

Answer 10

yay

Answer 11

hint:
associative property with respect to the multiplication, is:
\[\Large \left( {a \cdot b} \right) \cdot c = a \cdot \left( {b \cdot c} \right)\]
