Answer:

see below

Explanation:

(2 · x) · 6 = 2 · (x · 6) → Associative property of multiplication, this property states that (a · b) · c = a · (b · c), basically, it doesn't matter what order you multiply in, the result will always be the same.

3(3x + 2) = 9x + 6 → Distributive Property, this property states that a(b + c) = a · b + a · c.

(7 + 1) + 5 = 5 + (7 + 1) → Commutative property of addition, this property states that a + b = b + a which means that you can "flip" or "switch the positions of" the quantities being added and you will still get the same result.

(7 · x · 3) = (7 · 3 · x) → Commutative property of multiplication, just like the commutative property of addition, this states a · b = b · a, in other words, you can "flip" or "switch the positions of" the quantities being multiplied and you will get the same result.

(9 + 2) + 3 = 9 + (2 + 3) → Associative property of addition, just like the associative property of multiplication, this property states that (a + b) + c = a + (b + c), in other words, it does not matter which order you add in, the result will always be the same.
