The commutative property of multiplication states that the order in which two numbers are multiplied does not affect the product. In other words, for any two numbers a and b, a * b = b * a.
To use the commutative property of multiplication to write an equivalent algebraic expression for 5x + 23, we can rearrange the terms so that the x term comes before the constant term.
So, the equivalent expression using the commutative property of multiplication is:
x * 5 + 23
This can also be written as:
5x + 23
