State the property that justifies the statement. For example, $3 + ( - 4 ) = ( - 4 ) + 3$ because of the commutative property for addition. $[ 10 ( - 9 ) ] 5 = 10 [ - 9 ( 5 ) ]$
A) Distributive Property
B) Associative Property for Multiplication
C) Identity Property for Multiplication
D) Additive Inverse Property
E) Commutative Property for Multiplication

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The statement is justified by the Associative Property for Multiplication, which allows the reassociation of the factors in multiplication without changing the product.

State the Property That Justifies the Statement 3+(−4)=(−4)+33 + ( - 4 ) = ( - 4 ) + 33+(−4)=(−4)+3

State the Property That Justifies the Statement $3 + ( - 4 ) = ( - 4 ) + 3$
