Question

Verify x + y = y + x for following values of X and y (1) x =5/7, y=–3/2 Please explain

Answer 1

Answer:

31/14

Step-by-step explanation:5/7+3/2=3/2+5/7

This also called commutative property.

First we will do the LCM of the denominator = 7 and 2 = 14

So will multiply 5/7 with 2 and 3/2 with 7

$\frac{10}{14} + \frac{21}{14} = \frac{31}{14\\}$

Answer 2

Answer:

(5/7)+(-3/2)=(-3/2)+(5/7)

=5/7+(-3/2)=(-3/2)+5/7

10-21/14=(-21+10/14)

-11/14=(-11/14).

LHS=RHS.
