Explanation:
Identify the laws in the following statements : 1) -3+ 5 = 5 +(-3) ii) [(-5) * 2)] × 3 = (-5) * ((2 * 3)] v) -5x 6 = -30 ii) -2 x 1 = 1 × (-2) = -2 iv) 18 x [7 +(-3)] = [18 x 7] + [18 (-3)] vi) -3 + 0 = 0 +(-3) = -3
Concept:
Commutative property
The commutative property states that expressions can be added or multiplied in any order.
x + y = y + x
xy = yx
For example, 23 + 7 = 7 + 23 and 5 × 8 = 8 × 5.
Associative property
The associative property states that when three or more expressions are added or multiplied, they may be grouped without affecting the answer. The commutative property applies within the associative property.
(x + y) + z = x + (y + z)
(xy)z = x(yz)
Distributive property
The distributive property states that multiplying an expression times the sum of expressions is the same as multiplying the expression times each item in the sum.
x(y + z) = xy + xz
Given:
1) -3+ 5 = 5 +(-3)
ii) [(-5) * 2)] × 3 = (-5) * ((2 * 3)]
iii) -2 x 1 = 1 × (-2) = -2
iv) 18 x [7 +(-3)] = [18 x 7] + [18 (-3)]
v) -3 + 0 = 0 +(-3) = -3
Find:
Identify the laws in the following statements
Solution:
1) -3+ 5 = 5 +(-3)
Commutative property
ii) [(-5) * 2)] × 3 = (-5) * ((2 * 3)]
Associate property
iii) -2 x 1 = 1 × (-2) = -2
Commutative property
iv) 18 x [7 +(-3)] = [18 x 7] + [18 (-3)]
Distributive property
v) -3 + 0 = 0 +(-3) = -3
Commutative property
Therefore, 1,3,5 is Commutative property and 2 is associate property and 4 is distributive property
