1. Add the following rational numbers then reduce to lowest terms: SHOW YOUR WORK! a. 7.2 + (-3.6) + (-2.3)

Simonne used the following steps to simplify the given expression. 12 - 3(-2x + 4) step 1: 12 + (–3)·(–2x) + (–3)·(4) step 2: 12 + 6x + (–12) step 3: 12 + (–12) + 6x step 4: 0 + 6x step 5: 6x what property of real numbers was used to transition from step 3 to step 4? a. identity property of addition b. inverse property of addition c. associative property of addition d. commutative property of addition

What are the solutions of the system? solve by graphing. y = x^2 + 3x + 2 y = 2x + 2

Ireally need subtract and simplify.(-y^2 – 4y - 8) – (-4y^2 – 6y + 3)show your work, ! i will mark you brainliest but you have to show your work.
