Henry says that you can apply the commutative property and associative properties to 5x + 10 and get 10x + 5. Is Henry correct? Explain

Answer:

no

Step-by-step explanation:

5x would be multiplying 5 and x. So, if x=4, then 5x would be 20, and 20+10=30. But if you did 10x+5, it would be 40+5 which is 45. Therefore, the answers would not be the same.

In this exercise we have to use the knowledge of associative and commutative properties to find the same value, in this way we can say that:

Will not be possible find the same value

Recalling the properties we have that:

  • The associative property is a mathematical rule that states that the order in which the factors are grouped in a multiplication does not change the product.
  • The commutative property is a mathematical rule that states that the order in which we multiply numbers does not change the product.

So with this information we can demonstrate that this will not be possible, such as:

[tex]5X+10\\if \ x=4\\20+10=30 \ its \ not\\10*4=40+5= 45[/tex]
