Answer:

C. (7 + x) + 4y

Explanation:

The associative property of addition:

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

Therefore:

7 + (x + 4y) → (7 + x) + 4y

The answer is C because when you use associative, all your doing is keeping the equation just the way it is, but moving the parenthesis in difference places.
