Complete the following stepped-out solution to show that −8+c+8−d is equivalent to c−d.(1 point)
−8+c+8−d
−8+
+c−d Commutative Property of Addition
+c−d Inverse Property of Addition
c−d Identity Property of Addition
There are a few mistakes in the solution provided. Here's the corrected version:
−8 + c + 8 − d
(-8 + 8) + (c - d) Commutative Property of Addition
0 + (c - d) Inverse Property of Addition
(c - d) Identity Property of Addition
So, the expression −8 + c + 8 − d is indeed equivalent to c - d.
−8+c+8−d
−8+ +c−d Commutative Property of Addition
+c−d Inverse Property of Addition
c−d Identity Property of Addition
what is the second correct answer
Apologies for the confusion. Here's the correct second answer:
−8 + c + 8 − d
(-8 + 8) + (c − d) Commutative Property of Addition
0 + (c − d) Inverse Property of Addition
c − d Identity Property of Addition
So, the expression −8 + c + 8 − d is indeed equivalent to c - d. Both solutions provided are correct.
The solution provided is incorrect. Here's the correct solution:
−8 + c + 8 − d
(c - d) + (-8 + 8) Commutative Property of Addition
(c - d) + 0 Inverse Property of Addition
(c - d) Identity Property of Addition
So, the expression −8 + c + 8 − d is indeed equivalent to c - d.
