Question
Consider the steps to simplify the expression. What property of operation is used in Step 1?

Expression: -437
+ 7 - 347

Step 1: = -437
+ 7 + (-347
)
Step 2: = -437
+ (-347
) + 7
Step 3: = -4 + (-37
) + (-3) + (-47
) + 7
Step 4: = -4 + (-37
) + (-47
) + (-3) + 7
Step 5: = -4 + (-1) + (-3) + 7
Step 6: = -8 + 7
Step 7: = -1

13 + 34 + 23

Answer 6

Which expression is equivalent to 1/3+(34+23)?

Answer 7

The expression that is equivalent to 1/3 + (34 + 23) is:

1/3 + 57

Answer 8

Which expression is equivalent to 1/3+ (3/4 + 2/3)?

Answer 9

To simplify the expression 1/3 + (3/4 + 2/3), we need to find a common denominator and then add the fractions together.

The common denominator for 3 and 4 is 12.

1/3 can be written as 4/12 and 2/3 can be written as 8/12.

So the expression becomes:

4/12 + (3/4 + 8/12)

Now, let's simplify further:

4/12 + (9/12 + 8/12)

Combining the fractions:

4/12 + 17/12

Adding the fractions:

(4 + 17)/12

21/12

Therefore, the expression equivalent to 1/3 + (3/4 + 2/3) is 21/12.

Answer 10

Simplify (10−6)2
+ 8 − 22
.

Answer 11

To simplify the expression (10-6)^2 + 8 - 22, we first need to simplify the exponent (10-6)^2.

(10-6)^2 = 4^2 = 16

So now the expression becomes:

16 + 8 - 22

Next, we perform addition and subtraction left to right:

16 + 8 = 24

24 - 22 = 2

Therefore, the simplified expression is 2.
