Answer:

No property because the expression on the right hand side and left hand side are not equivalent to each other.

Explanation:

Identify the property used to find the equivalent expression

[(4+(-2)]+1=4[(-2)+1]

The expression above is not equivalent

[(4+(-2)]+1 ≠ 4[(-2)+1]

[(4 - 2) ]+ 1 ≠ 4[-2 + 1]

= 2 + 1 = 4 × - 1

= 3 ≠ -4

No property because the expression on the right hand side and left hand side are not equivalent to each other.
