Name the algebraic property demonstrated in the example below: If x = 3 and 3 = y, then x = y. Commutative Property of Addition Associative Property of Addition Transitive Property Symmetric Property

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

Any ideas?

OpenStudy (jasmin_brz):

not really

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

If a = b and b = c, then a = c.

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

That^ is called the transitive property of equality.

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

If x = 3 and 3 = y, then x = y. If a = b and b = c, then a = c.

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

Since 3 = y we can substitute y for 3 in x = 3. This gives x = y after substitution.

thanks

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

Thanks for trying to learn :-)

OpenStudy (kristy1234567):

Commutative Property of Multiplication because the variables can be in any order and get the same result.

OpenStudy (kristy1234567):

i mean addition

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

^not right

OpenStudy (jasmin_brz):

im confuzzled.

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

There is no addition going on.

OpenStudy (jasmin_brz):

@jhonyy9 who is right?

OpenStudy (jasmin_brz):

@TyrenHere

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

The answer is the transitive property.

OpenStudy (jasmin_brz):

okay thank you

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

Look at my explanation above and decide :-)

OpenStudy (tyrenhere):

@jasmin_brz ;)

OpenStudy (tyrenhere):

Do you need help with anything else?

OpenStudy (jasmin_brz):

yes
