Which properties were used to prove that the expressions 5x+x-2 and 6x-2 are equivalent?
-distributive and commutative properties
-associative and commutative properties
-distributive and addition properties
-associative and distributive properties

Respuesta :

The properties that can be used to show these expressions are equivalent are associative and distributive.

What is the associative property?

This property implies that rearranging the terms of a mathematical operation does not change its results.

This occurs in this case because by using 5x +x or 6x you are rearranging the terms but the result would be the same.

What is distributive property?

This property implies terms can be distributed in different ways without changing the result.

  • This property can be applied in this case because 5x+x-2 and 6x-2 are equivalent.
