Vance used the associative property to write (4.5m+7/8)-9 as the equivalent expression 4.5(7/8-9). did vance apply the associative property correctly? why or why not? yes, the terms with variables should be written first. yes, the terms can be regrouped and still be equivalent. no, the order of the terms should have been changed. no, the addition symbol was dropped in the second expression

what is a pre-existing condition claus?

means if you're already damaged some way when you take out a medical insurance you will not get full compensation for that injury that you already have.

x > 1.3

step by step:

8.5−0.9x> 9.8−1.9x

step 1: simplify both sides of the inequality.

−0.9x+8.5> −1.9x+9.8

step 2: add 1.9x to both sides.

−0.9x+8.5+1.9x> −1.9x+9.8+1.9x

1x+8.5> 9.8

step 3: subtract 8.5 from both sides.

1x+8.5−8.5> 9.8−8.5

1x> 1.3

step 4: divide both sides by 1.

1x/1 > 1.3/1
