Explain how to write an equivalent expression using the associative property.

2 + (11 + y)

11+(2+y)

Step-by-step explanation:

The associative property says that you can move numbers inside the parentheses around if all the numbers are the same operation in a simple sense

So that means in this case: 2+(11+y)

We can switch the 2 and the 11 around since they are both the same, addition.

11+(2+y)

Sample Response: The associative property allows you to keep the order of the terms and change the position of the parentheses. So you can rewrite the terms in the same order and then move the parentheses so that the 2 + 11 is now inside. The equivalent expression is (2 + 11) + y.

Step-by-step explanation:

"Sample Response"

square root of 36/6 = 2.449489743

square root of 16/6 = 1.632993162

square root of 6 = 2.449489743

the answer is square root of 16/6 because the square root of 36/6 is the same answer as square root of 6 = 2.449489743
