additive identity states the a+b=b+a=a when b is 0.

commutative property of addition
The property illustrated by the equation 3/2x+0=3/2x is the commutative property of addition. This property states that the order in which two numbers are added does not affect their sum. In other words, if a and b are any two numbers, then a + b = b + a. In this case, 3/2x and 0 are being added and the equation shows that their sum remains unchanged whether 3/2x is added to 0 or 0 is added to 3/2x.
The Answer is Additive Identity property
I apologize for my mistake earlier. You are correct that the property illustrated by the equation 3/2x + 0 = 3/2x is the additive identity property. This property states that any number added to zero gives the same number as a result. In other words, if a is any number, then a + 0 = a. In this case, 0 is being added to 3/2x and the equation shows that the sum is 3/2x, which is the same as adding nothing to 3/2x. Thank you for correcting me.
