Which equations illustrate the commutative property of addition? Choose exactly two answers that are correct. A. –9 + 11 = 11 + (–9) B. C. –5 + [6 + (–4 + 3.1)] = – 5 + [(–4 + 3.1) + 6] D. –7.4 + (13 + 2.1) = (–7.4 + 13) + 21

JEEZ THATS A HUGE PROBLEM O_O

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ikr

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well you always do parenthesis first

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-4/1 + 1/5

OpenStudy (k12awesomeness):

It's either C or A

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-20 / 5 + 1 /5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how u figuer @K12awesomeness

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-19 is the parenthesis

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1/3 plus -19/1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no -9

OpenStudy (anonymous):

multiply -19/1 by 3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait what

OpenStudy (k12awesomeness):

I did the property of addition. @Victory23

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im using pemdas o3o

OpenStudy (anonymous):

?oh okay srry carry on

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-19/1 * 3 is -57/3

OpenStudy (k12awesomeness):

You have to use the property of addition also. Without that, your not going to get it correct.

OpenStudy (k12awesomeness):

anyway.. carry on.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1/3 + -57/3 is -56/3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

k

OpenStudy (anonymous):

there can be 2 answers

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but you cant divide that otherwise itll go on forever

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so 18.6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

WAITTTTTTTT

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-18.6666667 is what i got so we round

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and yes i think

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@K12awesomeness is this correct? o3o

OpenStudy (anonymous):

WE DONT NEED TO SLOVE THIS WE NEED TO FIND the commutative property of addition?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh o-o

OpenStudy (k12awesomeness):

Yeah, and yes, if your doin PEMDAS then yes 18.6 would be it if u rounded.

OpenStudy (k12awesomeness):

But in our case, we have to do the property of addition

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i got confused im sorry XD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its okay

OpenStudy (k12awesomeness):

it's totally okay!!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

^^

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so do u guys know the answer?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i have no clue im sorry

OpenStudy (k12awesomeness):

It's either C or A.. I'm not sure though.. Look at this: https://www.khanacademy.org/math/pre-algebra/order-of-operations/arithmetic_properties/v/commutative-property-for-addition

OpenStudy (anonymous):

k

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wow i havent used khan academy in forever

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its been 3 years O_O

OpenStudy (k12awesomeness):

same here! I just found it agian!! lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so A C

OpenStudy (k12awesomeness):

I think so...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

k

OpenStudy (k12awesomeness):

Either A and C or C and D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i'dd go with C and A to be honest

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i'd*
