The Commutative Property of Addition states that changing the order of the addends does not change the sum. This can be expressed mathematically as \( a + b = b + a \).

From your options, the statement that correctly demonstrates the Commutative Property of Addition is:

0 529 + 8a = 8a + 529

Here, the numbers/terms are switched in their positions in the addition, which aligns with the commutative property.

The other options do not correctly demonstrate this property.

Which of the following correctly demonstrates the Commutative Property of Addition? (1 point)
5 + 8 = 4 + 9
5z^9 + 8a = 8a + 5z^9
0 + 5z^9 = 5z^9
z^9 • 5=5z^9

The Commutative Property of Addition states that the order of the addends can be changed without affecting the sum, which means \( a + b = b + a \).

From the options you provided, the statement that correctly demonstrates the Commutative Property of Addition is:

5z^9 + 8a = 8a + 5z^9

In this option, the terms are simply switched, showing that the order of addition does not change the result.

The other options do not demonstrate the Commutative Property of Addition.
