To group like terms together using the Associative Property, you can rearrange the terms in the expression \( 9x + (2x + 3) \).
Here, you can group the \( 9x \) and \( 2x \) together since they are both terms with \( x \):
\[
(9x + 2x) + 3
\]
So, the expression rearranged using the Associative Property is:
\[
(9x + 2x) + 3
\]
This groups the like terms \( 9x \) and \( 2x \) together, while keeping \( 3 \) separate.
