Use the Associative Property to group like terms together for the expression 9x+(2x+3) . Do not simplify the grouped terms.

1 answer

To apply the Associative Property and group like terms in the expression \(9x + (2x + 3)\), you can rearrange the terms without changing their sum.

You can rewrite it as:

\[ (9x + 2x) + 3 \]

This groups the like terms \(9x\) and \(2x\) together. Thus, the expression grouped using the Associative Property is:

\[ (9x + 2x) + 3 \]
