Apply the Commutative Property to generate an expression equivalent to 8+9f−2+6f−8f−4+12 .(1 point)
To apply the Commutative Property, we can rearrange the terms in any order.
Using this property, we can rearrange the terms as follows:
8 + 9f + 6f - 8f - 2 - 4 + 12
Simplifying the expression, we get:
(9f + 6f - 8f) + (8 - 2 - 4 + 12)
Adding like terms within parentheses:
7f + (8 - 2 - 4 + 12)
Simplifying within parentheses:
7f + (8 - 6 + 12)
Adding like terms within parentheses:
7f + (14)
Simplifying the expression further:
7f + 14
So, the expression equivalent to 8 + 9f - 2 + 6f - 8f - 4 + 12 using the Commutative Property is 7f + 14.
