Properties
of
addition 1) Commutative
property
a+b = b+a
2) Associative
property
a+(b+c)=(a+b)+c
3) Distributive
property
ax(b+c)=axb+axc
4) Property of 0
a + 0 = a for any
rational number a.
5) Property of
opposite
a + (-a) = 0 for any
rational number a.
Day 4
For any numbers a and b, a - b = a + (-b).
Examples: 1) 3 - 3 = 0
2) 3 - (-3) = 3 + 3 = 6
3) -3 - (-3) = -3 + 3 = 0
4) -3 - 3 = -6
Day 5
Examples: 1) 3 3 = 9 [+ + = +]
2) 3 (-3) = -9 [+ - = -]
3) -3 (-3) = 9 [- - = +]
4) -3 3 = -9 [- + = -]
