Apply the Commutative Property to generate an expression equivalent to 8+9f−2+6f−8f−4+12 .
To apply the Commutative Property, we can rearrange the terms and change the order in which they appear.
Given expression: 8 + 9f - 2 + 6f - 8f - 4 + 12
Using the Commutative Property, we can change the order of the terms:
= 8 + (-2) + (-4) + 12 + 9f + 6f - 8f
Simplifying:
= (8 + (-2) + (-4) + 12) + (9f + 6f - 8f)
= 14 + 7f
Therefore, applying the Commutative Property to the given expression results in 14 + 7f.
