Answer:

13.
50+43=43+50

14.
5+(7+6)=(5+7)+6

15.
-15+0=0-15=-15

16.
(3)/(4)*(4)/(3)=1

17.
25*4=4*25

Explanation:

Let "a", "b", and "c" real numbers.

- Commutative Property of Addition states that:


a+b=b+a

- Associative Property of Addition states that:


(a+b)+c=a+(b+c)

- Additive Identity Property states that:


a+0=0+a=a

- Commutative Property of Multiplication states that:


a*b=b*a

- Multiplicative Inverse Property states that:


a*(1)/(a)=1 (
a\\eq 0)

Knowing these properties, we can solve the exercise:

13. By the Commutative Property of Addition:


50+43=43+50

14. By the Associative Property of Addition:


5+(7+6)=(5+7)+6

15. By the Additive Identity Property:


-15+0=0-15=-15

16. By the Multiplicative Inverse Property:


(3)/(4)*(4)/(3)=1

17. By the Commutative Property of Multiplication:


25*4=4*25
