Use the commutative and/or associative laws to write a series of steps verifying the given statement.(y + z) + 4 is equivalent to (4 + z) + y
What will be an ideal response?
| (y + z) + 4 = 4 + (y + z) | Using the commutative law |
| = 4 + (z + y) | Using the commutative law |
| = (4 + z) + y | Using the associative law |
