Question

1. which verbal expression represents 2(n - 6)? 1) two times n minus six 2) two times six minus n 3) two times the quantity n less than six 4) two times the quantity six less than n 6. if m and a represent integers, m + a = a + m example of which property? 1) commutative 2) associative 3) distributive 4) closure

Explanation:

Question 4:

The expression $2(n - 6)$ means we first find the quantity where 6 is less than $n$ (i.e., $n-6$), and then multiply that quantity by 2.

Question 6:

The commutative property of addition for integers states that for any two integers $M$ and $A$, $M + A=A + M$. The associative property is about grouping ($(M + A)+B = M+(A + B)$), the distributive property is $a(b + c)=ab+ac$, and the closure property means that the sum of two integers is an integer.

Answer:

1. 4) two times the quantity six less than $n$
2. 1) commutative
