Commutative Properties

TheCommutative Property of Additionstates that whenaddingtwo or more numbers or terms together, order is not important. That is:

a+b=b+aFor example, 2 + 7 = 7 + 2

TheCommutative Property of Multiplicationstates that whenmultiplyingtwo or more numbers or terms together, order is not important. That is:

a·b=b·aFor example 3 · 5 = 5 · 3

However,subtractionanddivisionarenotcommutative, as shown below.

7− 2 ≠ 2 − 7 since 5 ≠ − 5

50 ÷ 10 ≠ 10 ÷ since 5 ≠ 0.2

Associative and Identity Properties

TheAssociative Property of Additionstates that whenaddingthree or more numbers or terms together, grouping is not important. That is:

(a+b) +c=a+ (b+c) For example, (5 + 2) + 6 = 5 + (2 + 6)

TheAssociative Property of Multiplicationstates that whenmultiplyingthree or more numbers or terms together, grouping is not important. That is:

(a·b) ·c=a·(b·c) For example,(5 ·2) ·6 = 5 ·(2 ·6)

However,subtractionanddivisionarenotassociative, as shown below.

(5 − 2) −3 ≠5 −(2 −3)since 0 ≠6

(20 ÷4) ÷ 2 ≠20 ÷ (4÷ 2)since 2.5 ≠10

TheIdentity Property of Additionstates that adding zero to any expression gives the same expression. That is:

a+ 0 =a For example, 6 + 0 = 6

TheIdentity Property of Multiplicationstates that multiplying any expression by one gives the same expression. That is:

1 ·a=a For example,1 · 6 = 6

Inverse Properties

TheAdditive Inverse Propertystates that for every numberathere is a number −asuch thata+ (−a) = 0. A common name used for the additive inverse is theopposite. That is, −ais the opposite ofa. For example, 3 + (−3) = 0 and −5 + 5 = 0.

TheMultiplicative Inverse Propertystates that for every nonzero numberathere is a numbersuch that A common name used for the multiplicative inverse is thereciprocal. That is,is the reciprocal ofa. For example,.

The Distributive Property

TheDistributive Propertystates that for any three termsa, b, and c:

a(b+c) =ab+ac

That is, whena multiplies a group of terms, such as (b+c), it multiplieseachterm of the group. For example, when multiplying 2(x+ 4), the 2 multiplies both thex and the 4. This can be represented with algebra tiles, as shown below.

c. 10 cm, 15 cm, 20 cm d. 10 cm, 24 cm, 26 cm

e. 1 cm, 3 cm, 9 cm f. 2 cm, 10 cm, 11 cm

30. Example 1. Determine whether the triangle is a right triangle.
, 3, and 8

Which side is the biggest?

Plug your information into the Pythagorean Theorem. It doesn’t matter which number is a or b.

  1. If Austin borrows $300 to purchase a new bat, how much interest will he pay if he pays interest at a rate of 4% on a 6 month loan?

I = prt

I = 300 x 4% x one half of a year

I = 300 x .04 x .5

I = 6

Austin will pay $6 on his loan.
