Associative Property
Commutative Property
Distributive Property
Identity Property
2. Which equation demonstrates the Additive Inverse Property?
5 + 0 = 5
7 + (-7) = 0
3 × 1 = 3
2 × (3 + 4) = 2 × 3 + 2 × 4
3. The property allows you to multiply a sum by multiplying each addend separately and then adding the products.
4. According to the property, (a + b) + c = a + (b + c).
5. Use the Distributive Property to simplify the expression: 6(x + 4).
6. Explain the difference between the Commutative Property of Addition and the Associative Property of Addition. Provide an example for each.
7. The Multiplicative Identity Property states that any number multiplied by 0 equals 0.
True
False
