Match each step with the property used to get to that step. (Note: The steps in the left column are listed in the correct order needed to simplify the expression.)

(6x + 3) - 5x

1. (3 + 6x) - 5x
                                                                    identity
2. 3 + (6x - 5x)
                                                                    no property applies
3. 3 + (6 - 5)x
                                                                     commutative
4. 3 + (1)x
                                                                     distributive
5. 3 + x
                                                                       associative
