Question

14. Which real number property justifies the equivalence: 5x +3+8x + 2 = 5x +8x+3+2​

Answer 1

Answer: Commutative Property (Addition)

Explanation:

The commutative property states that we can move the order of numbers around in an addition or multiplication problem, and the result will still be the same.
`5x+3+8x+2` is the same as
`5x+8x+3+2`, just with the orders swapped around.
