Study Notes
Algebraic Properties
-
Associative Property:
- Example: 1 + (7 + 9) = (1 + 7) + 9
- This property shows that how numbers are grouped does not change their sum.
-
Distributive Property:
- Example: 3(x + 2) = 3x + 6
- This allows for the multiplication of a number by a sum, distributing the multiplier to each addend.
-
Distributive Property (alternative example):
- Example: 3(2 + 8) = 32 + 38
- Reinforces that a single factor can be distributed across a sum inside parentheses.
Commutative Properties
-
Commutative Property of Multiplication:
- Example: 2(3) = 3(2)
- Indicates that the order of multiplication does not affect the product.
-
Commutative Property of Addition:
- Example: 3 + 4 = 4 + 3
- States that the order of addition does not affect the sum.
-
Commutative Property (alternative example):
- Example: 3(x + 9) = (x + 9)*3
- Demonstrates that the order in which you multiply does not matter.
Associative Property of Multiplication
-
Associative Property of Multiplication:
- Example: (3*x)(-2) = 3(-2)*x
- This property illustrates that when multiplying, how the numbers are grouped does not change the product.
