The Commutative Property of Addition states that changing the order of the addends does not change the sum.
For the expression \(4x^2 + 8x\), we can rewrite it by changing the order of the terms. Thus, we can express it as:
\[ 8x + 4x^2 \]
Both expressions \(4x^2 + 8x\) and \(8x + 4x^2\) are equivalent due to the Commutative Property of Addition.
The Commutative Property of Multiplication states that changing the order of the factors does not change the product. For the expression \(a^{20} \cdot x^3\), we can rewrite it by changing the order of the factors.
Thus, we can express it as:
\[ x^3 \cdot a^{20} \]
Both expressions \(a^{20} \cdot x^3\) and \(x^3 \cdot a^{20}\) are equivalent due to the Commutative Property of Multiplication.
