Not sure what this means plz help?

1. which property is illustrated
a. (m+7.3)+4.1=m+(7.3+4.1)

2. 12x+4y+0=12x+4y

3. (3r)(2s=(2s)(3r)

these are the same question plz help

Final answer:

The properties illustrated by the provided mathematical statements are the Associative Property of Addition, Identity Property of Addition, and the Commutative Property of Multiplication.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question asked relates to identifying the algebraic property illustrated by three different mathematical statements. Each statement demonstrates a different property of arithmetic or algebra.

  1. (m+7.3)+4.1=m+(7.3+4.1) illustrates the Associative Property of Addition, which states that grouping of numbers does not change their sum.
  2. 12x+4y+0=12x+4y illustrates the Identity Property of Addition, which states that adding zero to a number does not change its value.
  3. (3r)(2s)=(2s)(3r) shows the Commutative Property of Multiplication, indicating that the order of multiplication does not affect the product.

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

a.(m+7.3)+4.1=m+(7.3+4.1) - Associative property of addition

The addition or multiplication of a several

numbers is the same regardless of how the numbers are grouped. The

associative property will always involve 3 or more numbers. The

parenthesis groups the terms that are considered one unit.

2. 12x+4y+0=12x+4y

Additive Identity Property

This means that you can add 0 to any number... and it keeps its identity! The number stays the same!

3.

(3r)(2s=(2s)(3r)

Commutative property of multiplication

The commutative property of multiplication states that two numbers can be multiplied in either order.
