Answer 2

So, what property do you use to simplify \[-(x+y)+x\] to \[-x-y+x\]

Answer 3

given it says so in the screenshot

Answer 4

no, it's not given

Answer 5

so, the given is what do you need to simplify. the given is your problem that they tell you to do. hence it is 'given' to you. You cannot be given a step to a solution, you must use a property to get the next step

Answer 6

Ah, wait I see what you are doing. The chart reads right to left, so the right side happens before the left column . Think of it as right column, actions, left column, result of action.

Answer 7

example, I "Give" you an apple. You "bite" the apple. The apple is 3/4 the size now.

Steps: Justifications
Apple Given
3/4 size You take a bite

Answer 18

You copied the problem wrong before.

Answer 20

You however did not realize this and moved the answers up a level each.

Answer 21

Does it make sense now why I said they were incorrect?

Answer 22

ok let's just do this so I'm pretty sure # 1 is distributive.

Answer 23

If I'm wrong this is just ridiculous

Answer 24

that's #2

Answer 25

Answer 40

no your not, you just don't get the dumb chart

Answer 41

you're

Answer 42

commutative??????????

Answer 43
