Answer:Jason is not correct as Jason changed the terms.

Explanation:

Given the expression 34+5.6b+9

Jason used the commutative property to write the above expression changed to 9.0 + 56b + 3.4

We have to tell Jason work is correct or not.

Commutative property states that order does not matters but the terms remains same i.e a+b=b+a

Jason change the expression 34+5.6b+9 to 9.0 + 56b + 3.4

here, Jason change the terms as well as order

∴ Jason is not correct as Jason changed the terms.
