Expression 1: 22r−13
Expression 2: 19r+(3r−2)−11
To use the associative property, we need to group the terms in Expression 2 differently. Let's regroup the terms inside the parentheses:
Expression 2: 19r+3r−2−11
Now, we can use the associative property to rearrange the terms:
Expression 2: (19r+3r)−2−11
Simplifying the terms inside the parentheses:
Expression 2: 22r−2−11
Combining like terms:
Expression 2: 22r−13
As we can see, both Expression 1 and Expression 2 simplify to 22r−13, demonstrating that they are equivalent.
Use the Associative Property to demonstrate that Expression 1 is equivalent to Expression 2.
Expression 1: 22r−13
Expression 2: 19r+(3r−2)−11
