Which expression would be easier to simplify if you used the commutative property to change the order of the numbers? A. 20 + 17 + (-1/2) + (-5/2)
B. 2/3 + (-1/3) + 5
C. (-17) + 45 + (-33)
D. 20 + 80 + (-32)

9514 1404 393

  C.  (-17) + 45 + (-33)

Step-by-step explanation:

The order seems appropriate for A, B, D:

  A. = 37 -6/2 = 34

  B. = 1/3 +5 = 5 1/3

  D. = 100 -32 = 68

I would rearrange the numbers in C to put the negative numbers together:

  C. = (-17) +(-33) +45 = -50 +45 = -5

set each factor equal to 0

4x-3 = 0

2x-1 = 0

solve for x.

4x-3=0

4x=3

x= 3/4

solve for x. 

2x-1= 0

2x= 1

x= 1/2

your answer should be 1/2 is less than or equal to x and 3/4 is greater than or equal to x
